Investigation of Boundary Effects on the Natural Cavitating Flow around a 2D Wedge in Shallow Water

When a cavitated body moves in shallow water, both flexible free surface and rigid bottom wall will produce great influence on the cavity pattern and hydrodynamics to change the motion attitude and stability of the body. In this paper, a single-fluid multiphase flow method coupled with a natural cav...
