Nonlinear partial differential equations are more suitable to model many physical phenomena in science and engineering. In this paper, we consider three nonlinear partial differential equations such as Novikov equation, an equation for surface water waves and the Geng-Xue coupled equation which serves as a model for the unidirectional propagation of the shallow water waves over a at bottom. The main objective in this paper is to apply the generalized Riccati equation mapping method for obtaining more exact traveling wave solutions of Novikov equation, an equation for surface water waves and the Geng-Xue coupled equation. More precisely, the obtained solutions are expressed in terms of the hyperbolic, the trigonometric and the rational functional form. Solutions obtained are potentially significant for the explanation of better insight of physical aspects of the considered nonlinear physical models.

The efficient breakwater design requires a knowledge of the behaviour of the waves passing the breakwater. Wave Diffraction is an important factor and phenomeon in this behaviour. The diffraction ocean waves entering a gap in a breakwater normal to the incident wave direction in water of uniform depth has been investigated, applying a solution previously given in the author's paper, based on the theory of light diffraction by Sommerfeld. The wave profiles and heights on both the leeward side of the breakwater and the gap side have been studied and summarized in the form of diagrams with diffraction coefficients in range of x/L, y/L 0∼100, b/L=0.5∼12, with some extension of the diagrams made previously. The results of the theoretical approaches have not been experimentally verified. The theory ad computation methods with computer program in Fortran IV developed in this study make an efficient use for estimating the diffraction about a breakwater gap.

Technologies for high-speed transistors, active devices essential to the fabrication of millimeter wave circuits have developed drastically with the design and processing techniques. The high frequency transistors, made of GaAs or InP related compound semiconductors mainly, are in the form of MODFETs and HBTs. Other than traditional III-V compound semiconductor materials, SiGe and GaN technologies are emerging as viable candidates of millimeter-wave devices. In this paper, basis and applications of millimeter-wave transistors are introduced.

The knowledge of the waves passing through the breakwater makes an important role in the efficient breakwater design. Wave diffraction is an important factor in this role, but some usable development about it have not been made in our country as yet. The diffraction of sea-water waves round the end of a semi-infinite impermeable breakwater has been investigated, applying a solution of the water wave diffraction problems given by Penney & Price. The wave pattern and heights on both the leewardside and the windward-side of the breakwater have been calculated and summarized in the form of diagrams with diffraction factors between $r/{\lambda}=0~50$. This involves some extension of the diffraction diagrams made previously. The theory and computation methods with computer program in fortran IV developed in this study make an efficient use for estimating the diffraction effects at a semi-infinite breakwater.

An experimental research has been carried out for flow control of the shock wave/turbulent boundary-layer interaction utilizing aeroelastic mesoflaps. Various shapes and thicknesses of the mesoflap are tested to achieve different deflections of the flap, and ail the results are compared to the solid-wall reference case without flow-control mechanism. Quantitative variation of skin friction has been measured downstream of the interactions using the laser interferometer skin friction meter, and qualitative skin friction distribution has been obtained by observing the interference fringe pattern on the oil-film surface. A strong spanwise variation in the fringe patterns with a narrow region of separation near the centerline is noticed to form behind the shock structure, which phenomenon is presumed partially related to three-dimensional flow structures associated with both the sidewalls and the bottom test surface. The effect of the shape of the cavity is also observed and it is noticed that the shape of the cavity is not negligible.

This investigation studies the characteristics of wave dispersion in sigmoid functionally graded (SFG) curved beams lying on an elastic substrate for the first time. Homogenization process was performed with the help of sigmoid function and two power laws. Moreover, various materials such as Zirconia, Alumina, Monel and Nickel steel were explored as curved beams materials. In addition, curved beams were rested on an elastic substrate which was modelled based on Winkler-Pasternak foundation. The SFG curved beams' governing equations were derived according to Euler-Bernoulli curved beam theory which is known as classic beam theory and Hamilton's principle. The resulted governing equations were solved via an analytical method. In order to validate the utilized method, the obtained outcomes were compared with other researches. Finally, the influences of various parameters, including wave number, opening angle, gradient index, Winkler coefficient and Pasternak coefficient were evaluated and indicated in the form of diagrams.

Various loads induced by marine environmental conditions, such as waves, currents, and wind, are crucial for the operation and viability of offshore wind power (OWP) systems. In particular, waves have a significant impact on the stress and fatigue load of offshore structures, and highly reliable design parameters should be derived through extreme value analysis (EVA) techniques. In this study, extreme wave analyses were conducted with various Weibull distribution models to determine the reliable design parameters of an OWP system suitable for the Ulsan area. Forty-three years of long-term hindcast data generated by a numerical wave model were adopted as the analyses data, and the least-squares method was used to estimate the parameters of the distribution function for EVA. The inverse first-order reliability method was employed as the EVA technique. The obtained results were compared among themselves under the assumption that the marginal probability distributions were 2p, 3p, and exponentiated Weibull distributions.

Introduction of wave model, considered the effect of shoaling, refraction, diffraction, partial reflection, bottom friction, breaking at the coastal waters of complex bathymetry, is a very important factor for most coastal engineering design and disaster prevention problems. As waves move from deeper waters to shallow coastal waters, the fundamental wave parameters will change and the wave energy is redistributed along wave crests due to the depth variation, the presence of islands, coastal protection structures, irregularities of the enclosing shore boundaries, and other geological features. Moreover, waves undergo severe change inside the surf zone where wave breaking occurs and in the regions where reflected waves from coastline and structural boundaries interact with the incident waves. Therefore, the application of mild-slope equation model in this field would help for understanding of wave transformation mechanism where many other models could not deal with up to now. The purpose of this study is to form a extended mild-slope equation wave model and make comparison and analysis on variation of harbor responses in the vicinities of Ulsan Harbor and Ulsan New Port, etc. due to construction of New Port in Ulsan Bay. This type of trial might be a milestone for port development in macro scale, where the induced impact analysis in the existing port due to the development could be easily neglected.

A System Identification method to develop parametric models linking free surface elevation and wave pressure is presented and two models are built allowing for either wave pressure or free surface elevation simulation. Linear, time invariant model structures with static nonlinearities are assumed and solutions are sought in a form of autoregressive model with extra input (ARX). An arbitrary chosen free-surface elevation and wave pressure dataset is used for estimation of the models, which are subsequently verified against datasets with similar pressure gauge depth but different free-surface elevation spectra due to different meteorological conditions. It is shown that free-surface simulation using System Identification methods can perform better than traditional linear transfer function derived from linear wave theory (LTF), while wave pressure simulation quality using presented methods is generally similar to that obtained with corrected LTF.

The purpose of this study is related to automatic hull-form design for ships operating at two speeds. Research was conducted using a series 60 ($C_B=0.6$) ship as a target, which has the most basic ship hull-form. Hull-form development was pursued from the viewpoint of improving resistance performance. In particular, automatic hull-form design for a ship was performed to improve wave resistance, which is closely related to hull-forms. For this purpose, we developed automatic hull-form design software for ships by combining an optimization technique, resistance prediction technique and hull-form modification technique, appling the software developed to a target ship. A sequential quadratic programming method was used for optimization, and a potential-based panel method was used to predict resistance performance. A Gaussian-type modification function was developed and applied to change the ship hull-form. The software developed was used to design a target ship operating at two different speeds, and the performance of the resulting optimized hull was compared with the results of the original hull. In order to verify the validity of the program developed, experimental results obtained in model tests were compared with calculated values by numerical analysis.
