Maritime traffic has increased considerably in recent years, making energy efficiency and navigation safety of ships more crucial than ever. Hence, a two-time scale model based on the Taylor expansion boundary element method (TEBEM) is proposed to predic...

The near-trapping phenomenon, which can lead to high wave elevations and large wave drift forces, is investigated by a floating four-column structure. To solve this wave-structure interaction problem, a numerical model is established by combining the wav...
