Comparison between numerical analysis and the levitation mass method measurement test of a spherical structure early impacting water

In order to precisely measure water impact loads of a spherical structure vertically dropping onto a calm water surface, a new validity check of the analysis using the levitation mass method experiment is proposed. The main feature of levitation mass method experiment is to obtain a better estimatio...
