This paper describes details of an oil spill model, OILTRANS, developed by the authors. The
model is an off-line particle-transport model coupled to the most up to date operational met …

Abstract A flexible 2D/3D oil spill modeling system addressing the distinct nature of the
surface and water column fluids, major oil weathering and improved retention/reposition …

Over the past three decades simplified empirical formulae contributed greatly in a rapid
evaluation of the oil slick spreading and drifting. Modern oil spill models can utilise more …

A multiphase oil spill model has been developed to simulate consequences of accidental oil
spills in the marine environment. Six state variables are computed simultaneously: an oil …

This paper presents the development and application of a three-dimensional oil spill model
for predicting the movement and fate of an oil slick in the coastal waters of Singapore. In the …

The purpose of this study is to determine the risky areas by simulating trajectory of ship
based oil spill in Bay of Izmir. To get well informed about fate, this study makes the best …

Oil spills is one of the most important hazards in the estuarine and coastal water. In recent
decades, engineers try to predict the status of oil slick to manage the pollution spreading …

To enhance the understanding of hydrodynamics of oil spill containment booms, numerical
simulations of different booms were carried out using the state-of-the-art Computational …

The aim of this paper is to present a novel method of numerical simulation of oil spill
behaviour in the conditions of human response. The main point of the method is to extend …

Publisher Summary This chapter discusses the weather effects on oil spill countermeasures.
Spill countermeasures are affected by weather conditions. Weather has been identified as …
