Download or read book Waves in Oceanic and Coastal Waters written by Leo H. Holthuijsen and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 2010-02-04 with total page 9 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Waves in Oceanic and Coastal Waters describes the observation, analysis and prediction of wind-generated waves in the open ocean, in shelf seas, and in coastal regions with islands, channels, tidal flats and inlets, estuaries, fjords and lagoons. Most of this richly illustrated book is devoted to the physical aspects of waves. After introducing observation techniques for waves, both at sea and from space, the book defines the parameters that characterise waves. Using basic statistical and physical concepts, the author discusses the prediction of waves in oceanic and coastal waters, first in terms of generalised observations, and then in terms of the more theoretical framework of the spectral energy balance. He gives the results of established theories and also the direction in which research is developing. The book ends with a description of SWAN (Simulating Waves Nearshore), the preferred computer model of the engineering community for predicting waves in coastal waters.
Download or read book Nonlinear Parametric Wave Model Compared with Field Data written by Jose Luis Branco Seabra de Melo and published by . This book was released on 1985 with total page 78 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Wave spectra calculated using the Parameterized Nonlinear Wave Solution developed by Le Mehaute et al. (1984) are compared with field data acquired at Leadbetter beach, Santa Barbara, California. The parameterized solution satisfies the nonlinear free surface boundary conditions to a specified degree of accuracy and is expressed in terms of a converging truncated Fourier series. The wavenumber, surface profile and wave orbital velocities are determined by the wave height and wave period at the local depth of water. Spectral components are compared between the model results and field data. Good agreement is observed for waves corresponding to Ursell numbers rangers from 25 to 75. For large Ursell numbers (strong nonlinear effects) the parameterized model underestimates the data. Keywords: Nonlinear waves; Shallow water waves; Spectral analysis. (Theses).
Download or read book A User s Guide to a Steady state Shallow water Directional Spectral Wave Model written by Jon M. Hubertz and published by . This book was released on 1986 with total page 58 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This report describes the formulation and use of a directional spectral wave model which can be used in shallow water. The model simulates the transformation of a directional wave spectrum over an arbitrary two dimensional bathymetry allowing for the effects of atmospheric input, bottom friction, bottom percolation, nonlinear wave interaction, shoaling, refraction, and equilibrium range energy limitation. The user has the option to include or exclude these sources and sink terms in any combination desired. The formulation of each of these terms is summarized. A description of the computer code is provided including a summary of the purpose of each subroutine and the format for data input and output of results. A sample application is provided showing the transformation of a wave spectrum from deep to shallow water over a uniformly sloping bottom.
Download or read book Wave Spectral Transformation in Shallow Water written by Yun-Hai Chen and published by . This book was released on 1982 with total page 176 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The purpose of this study is to develop a numerical method to compute shallow water wave spectral transformation both for stationary and non-stationary cases. A numerical model for stationary wave spectral transformation has been developed by Shiau and Wang (1977) and further amplified by Wang and Yang (1981). The present work extends the model to add bottom friction and local wind generation. This model is applicable to wave spectral transformation under stationary meteorological conditions. If the meteorological condition is non-stationary in the generating area or the local wind effect in the domain of consideration can no longer be neglected, such as when a hurricane or storm sweeps through offshore of a coastal region, the wave spectral transformation in shallow water should also be treated as non-stationary. A non-stationary wave spectral transformation model is thus developed to handle these cases. (Author).

Download or read book Dispersive Shallow Water Waves written by Gayaz Khakimzyanov and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2020-09-15 with total page 296 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This monograph presents cutting-edge research on dispersive wave modelling, and the numerical methods used to simulate the propagation and generation of long surface water waves. Including both an overview of existing dispersive models, as well as recent breakthroughs, the authors maintain an ideal balance between theory and applications. From modelling tsunami waves to smaller scale coastal processes, this book will be an indispensable resource for those looking to be brought up-to-date in this active area of scientific research. Beginning with an introduction to various dispersive long wave models on the flat space, the authors establish a foundation on which readers can confidently approach more advanced mathematical models and numerical techniques. The first two chapters of the book cover modelling and numerical simulation over globally flat spaces, including adaptive moving grid methods along with the operator splitting approach, which was historically proposed at the Institute of Computational Technologies at Novosibirsk. Later chapters build on this to explore high-end mathematical modelling of the fluid flow over deformed and rotating spheres using the operator splitting approach. The appendices that follow further elaborate by providing valuable insight into long wave models based on the potential flow assumption, and modified intermediate weakly nonlinear weakly dispersive equations. Dispersive Shallow Water Waves will be a valuable resource for researchers studying theoretical or applied oceanography, nonlinear waves as well as those more broadly interested in free surface flow dynamics.
