Dassanayake, Darshana T. (author), Antonini, A. (author), Pappas, Athanasios (author), Raby, Alison (author), Brownjohn, James Mark William (author), D’Ayala, Dina (author)The survivability analysis of offshore rock lighthouses requires several assumptions of the pressure distribution due to the breaking wave loading (Raby et al. (2019), Antonini et al. (2019). Due to the peculiar bathymetries and topographies of rock pinnacles, there is no dedicated formula to properly quantify the loads induced by the breaking...journal article 2021

Pouwels, H. (author)In order to reduce the large amount of flight hours necessary for the determination of performance data of an aircraft, a method has been developed to extract these data from a single dynamic flight maneuver. The paper gives a description of the instrumentation on board of the proto type of a twin turbofan medium size aircraft, which was used...report 1979

Moutzouris, C. (author)Experimental research to the influence of the air pressure on the impact pressure cause by breaking waves. The research shows that there are three factors which load the structure during the breaking of waves: the water layer over the structure, the shock due to the impact of the water jet from breaking and the air pocket entrapped in the water...report 1979

Moutzouris, C. (author)Engineers are interested in the dynamics of the interface waterstructure. In case of breaking of water waves on a structure high positive and sometimes negative pressures of very short duration occur. Not only the maxima and minima of the pressures on the structure are important to a designing engineer, but also the pressure-time history:...report 1979
