Abstract
We conduct a series of benchmarks to verify the implementation of this wave generation method and the capabilities of the solver wsiFoam to deal with wave structure interaction problems. These benchmarks include regular and focused waves, wave interaction with a floating body and the modelling of a wave energy converter, using different wave-maker geometries: piston, flap and plunger. The results gathered in this work agree well with experimental data measured in the laboratory and other numerical simulations.
