Download or read book Numerical Modeling of Water Waves written by Pengzhi Lin and published by CRC Press. This book was released on 2008-04-30 with total page 499 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Modelling large-scale wave fields and their interaction with coastal and offshore structures has become much more feasible over the last two decades with increases in computer speeds. Wave modelling can be viewed as an extension of wave theory, a mature and widely published field, applied to practical engineering through the use of computer tools. Information about the various wave models which have been developed is often widely scattered in the literature, and consequently this is one of the first books devoted to wave models and their applications. At the core of the book is an introduction to various types of wave models. For each model, the theoretical assumptions, the application range, and the advantages and limitations are elaborated. The combined use of different wave models from large-scale to local-scale is highlighted with a detailed discussion of the application and matching of boundary conditions. At the same time the book provides a grounding in hydrodynamics, wave theory, and numerical methods which underlie wave modelling. It presents the theoretical background and also shows how to use these models for achieving different engineering tasks, illustrated and reinforced with case study examples.

Download or read book Shoreline Response to Breakwaters with Time Dependent Wave Transmission written by and published by . This book was released on 2003 with total page 12 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Wave transmission is a leading parameter determining the response of the shoreline to a detached breakwater, reef, or spur attached to a jetty. To improve the predictive capability of the shoreline response numerical model GENESIS, published empirical formulas for the wave transmission coefficient were incorporated to calculate time-dependent wave transmission and shoreline response. Simulations for different structural configurations, wave climates, and water levels demonstrate the functional utility of time-dependent wave transmission on shoreline response predictions. Results indicate that variable wave transmission is of significance for modeling the response of the beach to submerged and emergent near-surface structures. Predictions of the model are examined in application to a functional design of a submerged spur being studied as a possible sediment-control measure for the north jetty at Grays Harbor, WA. Results show that for design applications, beach response under time-varying forcing cannot be anticipated with a constant transmission coefficient. The improved capability is expected to have wide applicability.

Download or read book Estimation of Wave Transmission Coefficients for Permeable Breakwaters written by William N. Seelig and published by . This book was released on 1979 with total page 32 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Madsen and White (1976) analytical model of wave transmission through permeable breakwaters is combined with a wave transmission by overtopping formula to provide a method of predicting wave transmission coefficients for permeable breakwaters. Comparison of this combined prediction technique with physical model laboratory tests shows that the technique is useful for estimating transmission coefficients for design. A computer program was found the most convenient method of making predictions. The computer program and an example showing program use are included in an Appendix. (Author).
