vertical and horizontal wave loads

vamsikrishna00 · December 19, 2024, 21:39

Hlo sir,
I'm currently working on a project that involves determining the loads on piles and decks. Is it possible to do this in REEF3D? If so, how is it possible? Are there any codes or other resources that I can use?

Hi!

In the CFD module one can use the force box command (P 81). The forces within the force box on a solid will then be calculated and printed out.

I don't believe there is a direct method for getting the forces in the other modules. One would have to do it manually.

The functionality is also implemented into NHFLOW in the release_candidate branch. Support there is however still experimental and not yet verified.
