Estimation of slamming coefficients on local members of offshore wind turbine foundation (jacket type) under plunging breaker

In this paper, the slamming coefficients on local members of a jacket structure under plunging breaker are studied based on numerical simulations. A 3D numerical model is used to investigate breaking wave forces on the local members of the jacket structure. A wide range of breaking wave conditions i...
