QALEFEM-Waves image

QALEFEM is a finite element model to solve the fully nonlinear potential theory for the wave-structure interaction with or without effects of wind and currents. The wave is generated using wavemaker. Damping zone, Somerfield condition and self-adaptive wavemaker are used to absorb the wave in the end of the tank.
