报告摘要:

Tsunamis, such as the 2004 Indian Ocean, 2010 Chile, 2011 Japan, and 2018 Sulawesi ones, have caused hundreds of thousands of casualties and widespread damage to coastal infrastructure. This seminar presents a three-dimensional (3D) numerical model developed to simulate the tsunami propagation and the hydrodynamic loading on structures. It solves the Navier-Stokes equation using a finite volume method with VOF (volume of fluid) capability. The 3D flow model has been coupled with a structural model to simulate the response of structures subjected to tsunami or other types of impulsive wave loading. The structural motion is fed back into the fluid solver via a technique that combines a sharp interface immersed boundary method with the cut-cell method. The fully coupled simulations show that the restoring force patterns heavily depend on the structural dynamics. Without considering the fluid-structure interactions, the model exhibits large errors in the magnitude and period of restoring force in the structure.
