Simulation Method

BEM, Boundary conditions developed to 2nd order

Method for ft computation

Derivatives of potential are directly given by resolution of integral equation. ft and other time derivatives are computed the same way.

Wave Absorption

Wave absorbing beach (beach length = 2 * wave length)

(Only used on free surface dynamic boundary condition.)

Intersection

The problem with singularities appear at both ends of the wedge could be solved by modification of normal directions at each extremity of the wedge. This option should be implemented soon.

Number of nodes

60 per wave length, 31 on wedge

Time integral method

4th order Runge-Kutta method

Dt = T / 60 ( T : Heave period )
