Statistical assessment of the wave loads at walls through two-phase CFD modeling of the effects of air compressibility

The modeling of wave impacts against coastal structures requires the analysis of hundreds or thousands of waves to be statistically meaningful. Long irregular wave attacks, when affordable, can be performed experimentally, but may be inadequate to track the air entrapment and account for air compres...
