A new finite difference scheme is studied fur the simulation of free surface, surface the third derivative tenn for the wave elevation is artificially added in the the free-surface boundary condition. This study presents a comparative analysis with simulations performed by using the classical MAC method. More systematic computations are carried out by changing the submergence depth and angle of attack. Through the numerical simulation, it is found that a new numerical method becomes more efficient for the reason that the free surface elevation is reasonably developed at tire rear of trailing edge.

Numerical study was made on the flow characteristics around a circular pipeline between parallel walls. The incompressible Navier-Stokes equations were solved by using a third-order upwind differential scheme. When the distance near a wall is small enough, the vortex shedding is almost completely suppressed because of the interaction with the wall boundary layer separation. This study aims to clarify the characteristics of the vortex shedding regime as the body approaches a wall as Reynolds number varies. The feature of separated vorticity dynamics is analyzed at different conditions with particular attention to the interaction between the pipeline wake and the induced separation on the plane walls.
