ITTC Workshop on Wave Run-up and Vortex Shedding

Welcome to the ITTC Workshop on Wave Run-up and Vortex Shedding

The ITTC forms international policy and standards associated with experimental practice on ship resistance and power, seakeeping and ocean engineering, propulsors and cavitation, high speed marine vehicles and manoeuvrability.

The 27^th ITTC Ocean Engineering Committee is conducting benchmark studies on wave run-up on single and four cylinders and vortex induced vibrations of marine risers.

The objective of the workshop is to present and discuss the results from the benchmark studies.

Scope of the Workshop

- Benchmark studies on wave run-ups on single and four cylinders. Numerical solutions are to be compared with experimental results.

- Experimental and numerical benchmark studies on vortex induced vibration of marine risers.

- General sessions on highly non-linear wave body interactions.

Submission

Potential participants in the benchmark studies are invited to contact the Committee at ittc-nantes2013(at)ec-nantes.fr

Abstracts and papers are invited to be submitted electronically.

Papers presented at the Workshop will be considered for publication in a special issue of Journal of Offshore Mechanics and Arctic Engineering or an ASME book.

Note that the benchmark study results will be included in the Final Report of ITTC Ocean Engineering Committee. The results will be presented anonymously
