Abstract The growing demand for ocean space has generated significant interest in multi-body floating systems, where gap resonance in confined regions plays a critical role in ensuring the safety of offshore operations. This study develops a numerical tank model using the Smoothed Particle Hydrodynamics (SPH) method, implemented through the open-source code DualSPHysics, to investigate hydrodynamic resonance in a twin-floater system and to examine the influence of internal tank sloshing on its hydrodynamic characteristics. The hydrodynamic behavior of the gap flow between a fixed twin-floater system in the numerical tank is validated through systematic comparison with experimental… More >

Abstract This study presents a numerical investigation of shallow water wave dynamics with particular emphasis on the role of surface tension. In the absence of surface tension, shallow water waves are primarily driven by gravity and are well described by the classical Boussinesq equation, which incorporates fourth-order dispersion. Under this framework, solitary and shock waves arise through the balance of nonlinearity and gravity-induced dispersion, producing waveforms whose propagation speed, amplitude, and width depend largely on depth and initial disturbance. The resulting dynamics are comparatively smoother, with solitary waves maintaining coherent structures and shock waves displaying gradual… More > Graphic Abstract

Abstract This study introduces a novel single-layer meshless method, the space-time collocation method based on multiquadric-radial basis functions (MQ-RBF), for solving the Benjamin-Bona-Mahony-Burgers (BBMB) equation. By reconstructing the time variable as a space variable, this method establishes a combined space-time structure that can eliminate the two-step computational process required in traditional grid methods. By introducing shape parameter-optimized MQ-RBF, high-precision discretization of the nonlinear, dispersive, and dissipative terms in the BBMB equation is achieved. The numerical experiment section validates the effectiveness of the proposed method through three benchmark examples. This method shows significant advantages in computational efficiency, More >

Abstract This study employs the Smoothed Particle Hydrodynamics (SPH) method to develop a computational fluid dynamics (CFD) model for analyzing the interaction between rogue waves and mooring systems. Four floating body configurations are investigated: (1) dual rectangular prisms, (2) rectangular prism–sphere composites, (3) sphere–rectangular prism composites, and (4) dual spheres. These configurations are systematically evaluated under varying mooring conditions to assess their hydrodynamic performance and wave attenuation capabilities. The model accurately captures the complex fluid–structure interaction dynamics between moored floating breakwaters and incident wave fields. Among the configurations, the dual rectangular prism system demonstrates superior performance More > Graphic Abstract

Abstract Throughout the composite structure’s lifespan, it is subject to a range of environmental factors, including loads, vibrations, and conditions involving heat and humidity. These factors have the potential to compromise the integrity of the structure. The estimation of the fatigue life of composite materials is imperative for ensuring the structural integrity of these materials. In this study, a methodology is proposed for predicting the fatigue life of composites that integrates ultrasonic guided waves and machine learning modeling. The method first screens the ultrasonic guided wave signal features that are significantly affected by fatigue damage. Subsequently,… More >

Abstract The dynamics of fluid and non-buoyant particles in a librating horizontal annulus is studied experimentally. In the absence of librations, the granular material forms a cylindrical layer near the outer boundary of the annulus and undergoes rigid-body rotation with the fluid and the annulus. It is demonstrated that the librational liquefaction of the granular material results in pattern formation. This self-organization process stems from the excitation of inertial modes induced by the oscillatory motion of liquefied granular material under the influence of the gravitational force. The inertial wave induces vortical fluid flow which entrains particles More > Graphic Abstract

Abstract An experimental investigation of the dynamics of the interface between two low-viscosity fluids with high density contrast oscillating in a fixed vertical slotted channel has been conducted. It has been found that as the amplitude of the liquid column oscillations increases, parametric oscillations of the interface are excited in the form of a standing wave located in the channel plane. In particular, depending on the interfacial tension, the standing waves have a frequency equal to that of liquid piston oscillations (harmonic response), or half of the frequency of oscillations of the liquid column in the… More >

Abstract Cancer accounts for 12.6% of all human deaths worldwide and 90% of cancer-related deaths are due to metastasis: the dissemination of invasive tumor cells from the primary tumors to other vital organs [1-3]. However, how these invasive tumor cells coordinate with each other to achieve the dissemination remains unclear. Recently we discovered that human tumor cells can initiate and transmit previously unknown long-distance (~100s m) intercellular biochemical waves in a microenvironment-mechanics-regulated manner. [4-5] In this presentation, we will present our new results on (1) the 2D/3D spatial-temporal characterization of the long-distance and the intra-/inter-cellular Ca²⁺ signals; More >

Abstract When cavitation bubbles collapse near a boundary, they can cause severe cavitation erosion to the boundary, which is a dangerous threat to the rapidly rotating turbines. Prior research has established that for single bubbles a possible mechanism is energy focusing of shockwaves during the non-spherical collapse of cavitation bubbles [1]. This however needs a particularly symmetric environment. A possible approach to reduce the shockwave focusing and thus the erosion would be through suitable modification of the boundary. In a first approach to modify this phenomenon, we introduce the symmetry breaking structure on the boundary in the shape of a slender bar to explore the effect More >

Abstract Internal solitary waves (ISWs) a serious threat to moored floating structures in deep water, especially in South China Sea. On predicating dynamic response of a moored structure subjected to ISWs, previous researchers directly apply the pre-calculated ISW loading to the structure, which ignores the coupling effects between the structure and the ISW. To address this issue, this paper develops a coupled dynamic analysis model for moored structures, where the determination of ISW loading considers the effects of dynamic responses of floating structures. This model can simulate the action of various loading components on the floating… More >
