About this document

Morison Equation for Wave Forces by Kristina Ora is a document available to read on EtoBox.

The Morison equation is a semi-empirical equation used to estimate the forces on a body in oscillatory fluid flow. It models the total force as the sum of an inertia force, proportional to the local flow acceleration, and a drag force, proportional to the square of the flow velocity. The equation contains empirical coefficients that depend on factors like the Keulegan-Carpenter number and Reynolds number. It is commonly used in offshore structure design but has limitations when diffraction effects are signi
