The numerical modelling of steep waves interacting with structures

The interaction of steep waves with structures is a complex problem which is still not fully understood, and is of great importance for the design of offshore structures. A particular problem of interest is the phenomenon of ringing which is highly nonlinear. In this thesis a number of inviscid free...
