Abstract
This study analyzes the hydrodynamic performance of a V-type wave dissipation system and amphibious landing equipment under different combined fields using the Reynolds-averaged Navier–Stokes (RANS) method. A three-dimensional numerical wave tank is established to simulate regular waves and validate the performance of an airbag-type floating breakwater. This study evaluates the optimal hydrodynamic performance of a V-type wave dissipation system under various configurations in a wave-only field and subsequently compares the efficacy of the better-performing system across multiple environmental conditions. The results show that the V-type wave dissipation system in the configurations of 30° and 45° angles is more favorable for the flow field and the amphibious landing equipment behind it. Compared to the wave-only condition, the time histories of wave heights under both wave-current and wind-wave conditions present an obvious phase advancement. In the wave-current field, a following current reduces the wave height and shortens the wave period. Conversely, in the wind-wave field, a following wind velocity leads to a certain increase in wave height while exerting minimal impact on the wave period. Compared to the wave-only condition, the peak and trough values of the wave height monitoring points in the combined wind-wave-current field show an increasing trend, with a significant increase in resistance and a shorter resistance period for the amphibious landing equipment behind the V-type wave dissipation system. This study shows that the selected V-type wave dissipation system proves to be more effective in wave-only and wave-current conditions, providing valuable references for the engineering application of this system.
