본 연구는 경계요소법을 이용하여 비선형 자유표면파을 해석한 것이며, 가상경계처리는 유체 연속성을 고려하여 mass-flux와 energy-flux를 사용하여 유한진폭파동의 해석수법을 제시했다. 유체의 비선형성 때문에 증분법을 적용했으며 경계요소법에 의해 얻어진 결과는 유한요소법의 결과와 실험치와 비교하여 보았으며 좋은 일치가 얻어 졌다. 따라서, 이 방법은 광범위한 파동문제 해석에 유효하게 이용될 수 있으리라 사료된다.
In this paper. boundary element method is applied to the analysis of nonlinear free surface wave. A particular concern is given to the treatment of the open boundaries at the in-flow boundary and out-flow boundary, which uses the mass-flux and energy-flux considering the continuity of fluid. By assuming the fluid to be inviscid and incompressible and the flow to be irrotational. the problem is formulated mathematically as a two-dimentional nonlinear problem in terms of a velocity potential. The equation(Laplace equation) and the boundary conditions are transformed into two boundary integral equations. Due to the nonlinearity of the problem. the incremental method is used for the numerical analysis. Numerical results obtained by the present boundary element method are compared with those obtained by the finite element method and also with experimental values.
