Bos, R.W. (author), Wellens, P.R. (author)To study how an extreme wave load on a maritime structure causes structural deformation, an experiment is conducted to measure the response of a one degree-of-freedom pendulum in a focused, breaking wave. The tube that makes up the base of the pendulum covers almost the entire width of the tank so that three-dimensional effects can be...journal article 2021

Bos, R.W. (author), Wellens, P.R. (author)Maritime structures operating out at sea experience large changes in wetted area because of free surface waves. Although these conditions are typical for maritime applications, a fundamental experiment that includes a structure in the air–water interface undergoing transitions from dry to wet and back does not appear to exist. This paper aims...journal article 2021
