Active absorption in deep waters applied to an offshore platform. Simulated with olaFlow ( https://sites.google.com/view/olaflowcfd ).

The left simulation corresponds to the present implementation of shallow water active wave absorption(SW-AWA) in olaFlow and the right simulation is uses the newly-implemented extended range active wave absorption (ER-AWA). The advantages are clear, as wave reflection is reduced significantly.
