Book Comparison of Numerical and Physical Hydraulic Models  Masonboro Inlet  North Carolina

Download or read book Comparison of Numerical and Physical Hydraulic Models Masonboro Inlet North Carolina written by C. J. Huval and published by . This book was released on 1977 with total page 117 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This report summarizes a mathematical model study of water motions in two horizontal dimensions for Masonboro Inlet, North Carolina. The study was part of the Corps of Engineers' General Investigation of Tidal Inlets research program (GITI) and was designed to meet two primary objectives. The first objective was to evaluate the effectiveness of state-of-the-art physical and mathematical modeling techniques in predicting the effects of major changes to an inlet on the hydraulics of the inlet. A second objective was to determine whether simple model tests, performed quickly and for a reasonable cost, could be relied on to evaluate the design of inlet improvements. Masonboro Inlet was in a natural state until August 1965, when major manmade changes to the inlet were initiated.' By July 1966, construction of a weir jetty and dredging of a deposition basin and navigation channel had been completed. The mathematical and physical models were initially calibrated using bathymetric and hydraulic data collected at the inlet in September 1969. Selected parts of the calibrated model were subsequently remolded for prediction of hydraulic characteristics for the following conditions: (a) preproject undeveloped inlet conditions, November 1964 bathymetry; and (b) modified inlet and north jetty conditions, July 1966 bathymetry. Results of the mathematical model investigations are discussed in this report. (Author).

Book Comparison of Numerical and Physical Hydraulic Models  Masonboro Inlet  North Carolina

Download or read book Comparison of Numerical and Physical Hydraulic Models Masonboro Inlet North Carolina written by D. Lee Harris and published by . This book was released on 1977 with total page 204 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Four models of Masonboro Inlet, North Carolina, have been developed in a program for assessing the value of models in investigating coastal inlet hydraulics problems. A distorted scale, fixed-bed physical model, a lumped parameter numerical model, and two two-dimensional numerical models were included in the study. Hydrodynamic equations which describe the two-dimensional flow in tidal inlets are developed in an appendix to this report. The Navier-Stokes equations are integrated vertically and time-averaged to form the governing equations for two-dimensional flow. This procedure eliminates a great deal of unnecessary detail about small-scale motions but retains terms descriptive of the interactions between small- and large-scale flow. A comparison of experimental results obtained with a physical model and calculations made with numerical models with the prototype records shows that, in general, the models simulate tidal height more satisfactorily than tidal current. Results obtained with one of the two-dimensional numerical models were much inferior to the results obtained with the other. The basic design of both two-dimensional numerical models was similar, but there were many subtle differences, indicating that a clear understanding of the modeling process is essential to success in modeling tidal flows.

This book was released on 1977 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This appendix discusses the verification, base tests, and predictive test of a fixed-bed hydraulic model of Masonboro Inlet, N.C., as part of the evaluation of the state-of-the-art inlet modeling techniques. It presents the data necessary for a comparison of results of the physical and numerical models discussed in the basic report.

(in preparation), and 'Supplementary Tests of Masonboro Inlet Fixed-Bed Model' (in preparation).

Book Coastal Protection

Download or read book Coastal Protection written by Pile Buck and published by Lulu.com. This book was released on 2012-10 with total page 283 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: With today's problems surrounding shoreline protection, this book should be of great assistance. This manual contains a compilation of 2 Navy and 2 Corps manuals all relative to the subject of coastal protection and the affects tidal action has on our shorelines. The titles included are: Coastal Protection is a U.S. Navy publication which deals specifically with waves and their characteristics. In order to prepare safe designs, the normal and extreme waves which will act against the structure must be evaluated so that a design wave can be selected. Pilebuck takes the user through this phase into the application of data to actual design of breakwaters and seawalls. Storm Surge Analysis: High tides and wind-generated waves combine to provide a potential for abnormally high water levels and flooding during hurricanes or other serious storms. An understanding of this phenomena is essential in order to plan control structures or design others.
