Elevated Structure Experiments

Regular, TMA, and transient wave cases were run for conditions with no specimen in the flume (Model Configuration 1) and conditions when the structure was positioned in the flume, with its elevation ranging from at the base of the flume to 68 cm above the flume bed. Each folder corresponds to a different wave event (REG, TMA, or TRAN), with average/ significant wave heights and periods (REG, TMA), or representative amplitude and period (TRAN) listed for each event. Within each event folder, individual trials are named according to the trial and the respective structural air gap, ranging from at the base of the flume (a0=-0.40 m, REG/TMA or a0=-0.25 m, TRAN) to above the still water level (a9=0.28 m, REG/TMA, a9=0.43 m, TRAN)
