Abstract

A numerical model is proposed for the potential flow of an ideal incompressible fluid produced by impact of a body with concave bottom on water. Compression of the entrapped air is taken into account. The algorithm is based on joint solution of the equations of motion for the body and the fluid by the finite difference method with approximation in time. At each time, the boundary‐value problem for the Laplace equation is solved by the boundary‐element method. Calculation results are given. The effects of the air layer, dimensions and shape of the corrugations, initial velocity, and other parameters on the impact process are shown.
