报告人简介：
Shunqi Pan is Professor of Coastal Engineering and Director of Hydro-environmental Research Centre at the School of Engineering, Cardiff University. He has more than 30 years research experience in coastal engineering, ranging from physical and numerical modelling of coastal and estuarine processes, particularly with interaction with the nearshore coastal defense structures, as well as modelling of large-scale waves/tides/surge prediction under extreme conditions, resource characterization for marine renewable energy and the impact of climate change on coasts and estuaries. Since 2000, he has been a Principal Investigator/Co-investigator over 25 research projects supported by funding bodies such as the UK EPSRC, NERC and other sources, and secured more than £4m research funds. He has published widely in international journals and conferences, with Google Scholar H-Index 31 and more than 3200 citations. He received the Halcrow Prize from the Institution of Civil Engineers (ICE) in 2007. Currently, he is a Fellow of ICE (FICE); a member of the EPSRC peer-review college; an Associate Editor of “Frontiers in Marine Science (Ocean and Coastal Processes)” and “Water Science Engineering”; and a member of the editorial board of “China Ocean Engineering”, having previously served in the editorial board of the ICE “Maritime Engineering Journal” (2009-2012).

To reduce greenhouse gas emission, which is believed to be the main contributor to global climate change, marine renewable energy from tides, waves and offshore wind has been widely exploited. The oscillating water column (OWC) is a popular wave energy converter in the current marine renewable energy development. This talk is to present a recent research of applying Lattice Boltzmann Method (LBM) on the floating OWC wave energy converters. The LBM will be briefly introduced, followed by a number of case studies for model setup, validation and applications. The results show the full capability of the LBM in simulating the hydrodynamic response and performance of the OWC under the complex and interactive environment, which can be valuable for the device design and site selection.
