Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Abstract: "An investigation was undertaken to evaluate numerical models that can be used to predict harbor response to long-period wave excitation for both conventional harbors with deep drafts and artificial offshore ports in deep water. Numerical models using finite difference, hybrid finite element, and Lee's method solutions are discussed and compared with analytical solutions, hydraulic model data, and prototype field data. The hybrid finite element method of solution is shown to adequately predict periods of resonant peaks and modal water-surface elevation patterns in conventional and offshore harbors. Computational time requirements of this numerical model are shown to be sufficiciently low to make resonant response calculations economically feasible for a wide range of incident wave periods. Use of the hybrid finite element method to evaluate deep draft harbor design or modification and to aid hydraulic model studies of harbor oscillations is discussed."

This book was released on 2013-11-21 with total page 307 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Masters Theses in the Pure and Applied Sciences was first conceived, published, and dis· seminated by the Center for Information and Numerical Data Analysis and Synthesis (CINDAS) *at Purdue University in 1957, starting its coverage of theses with the academic year 1955. Beginning with Volume 13, the printing and dissemination phases of the ac· tivity were transferred to University Microfilms/Xerox of Ann Arbor, Michigan, with the thought that such an arrangement would be more beneficial to the academic and general scientific and technical community. After five years of this joint undertaking we had concluded that it was in the interest of all concerned if the printing and distribution of the volume were handled by an international publishing house to assure improved service and broader dissemination. Hence, starting with Volume 18, Masters Theses in the Pure and Applied Sciences has been disseminated on a worldwide basis by Plenum Publishing Corporation of New York, and in the same year the coverage was broadened to include Canadian universities. All back issues can also be ordered from Plenum. We have reported in Volume 20 (thesis year 1975) a total of 10,374 theses titles from 28 Canadian and 239 United States universities. We are sure that this broader base for theses titles reported will greatly enhance the value of this important annual reference work. The organization of Volume 20 is identical to that of past years. It consists of theses titles arranged by discipline and by university within each discipline.

Download or read book Impact of Ocean Forcing on the Coastal Hydrology Environment and Freshwater Resources written by Tianyuan Zheng and published by Frontiers Media SA. This book was released on 2024-10-24 with total page 174 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Groundwater is a valuable source of freshwater in coastal areas. The groundwater flux in coastal aquifers generally occurs in two processes: seawater intrusion (SWI) and submarine groundwater discharge (SGD). SWI, the subsurface movement of seawater into freshwater aquifers, is a natural phenomenon in coastal areas. As a result of SWI, the salinity of groundwater in the aquifer increases, thereby reducing the availability of freshwater in coastal areas. The total efflux (including fresh groundwater and circulating seawater) to the sea is commonly referred to as SGD. SGD is an important source of freshwater, nutrients, metals, and carbon to the ocean, thereby affecting coastal water quality and ecosystems. The study of the hydrological behaviors of these two processes in coastal aquifers is beneficial for the sustainable management of marine and groundwater resources in coastal areas.
