Abstract
In this paper, the goal is to revolve around discussing the stability of the Method of Fundamental Solutions (MFS) for the use case of wave-current interactions. Further, the reliability of Generating-Absorbing Boundary Conditions (GABCs) applied to the wave-current interactions is investigated using the Method of Fundamental Solutions (MFS), in a Numerical Wave Tank (NWT) within the potential theory where the main regular manifestations are the periodicity, and symmetry of traveling waves. Besides, the investigations cover different aspects of currents (coplanar current, without current, and opposing current), and also different water depths. Furthermore, the accuracy and stability of the numerical method (MFS) used in this work is evaluated for different locations and numbers of source points.
