Computational Treatments of Cavitation Effects in Near-Free-Surface Underwater Shock Analysis

Fluid cavitation constitutes an expensive computational nuisance in underwater-shock response calculations for structures at or just below the free surface. In order to avoid the use of a large array of cavitating acoustic finite elements (CAFE), various wet-surface approximations have been proposed...
