This book was released on 1987 with total page 86 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The purpose of the investigation herein was to obtain design information for stone and dolos armor used on breakwater heads and subjected to nonbreaking waves. More specifically, it was desired to determine the minimum weight of individual armor units (with given specific weights) required for stability as a function of (a) Type of armor unit; (b) Sea-side slope of the structure; (c) Angle of wave attack; (d) Wave period; (e) Wave height; Based on tests and results described herein, in which stone and dolos armor are used on conical breakwater heads and subjected to nonbreaking waves with angles of wave attack of 0, 45, 90, and 135 deg, it is concluded that: (a) The longer wave periods (2.00 and 2.75 sec) generally produce the lower stabilities; (b) Angles of wave attack of 45 and 90 deg are the most critical; (c) Flattening the slope from 1V on 1.5H to 1V on 2H does not improve stability of the stone armor.

Carver and published by . This book was released on 1986 with total page 98 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The purpose of the investigation was to obtain design information for stone and dolos armor used on breakwaters trunks and subjected to breaking and nonbreaking waves that exceeded the recommended design wave heights. Tests were planned in such a manner that sufficient data could be obtained to define a functional relationship between damage and relative wave height H/HD where H is a selected extreme wave height and HD is the design wave height. Also, transmitted wave heights were measured for all incident wave conditions. Based on test results in which dolos and stone armor were used on breadwater trunks and subjected to nonbreaking waves in a d/L range of 0.10 to 0.25 and breaking waves in a d/L range of 0.04 to 0.14, the direction of wave approach was 90 deg, and the structures were initially designed for no overtopping, it was concluded that: (1)Structures built to a 1V:1.5H slope generally tended to experience higher damage levels than those constructed on a 1V:2H slope, and (2) Transmitted wave heights observed one-half and one wavelength behind the breakwaters were very similar.

Book excerpt: Hydraulic model tests were conducted to determine the stability response of stone-armored breakwaters for a selected range of first underlayer weights. It was concluded that for the range of test conditions considered: (a) variations in first-underlayer stone weights (w sub 1) from (w sub r)/5 to (w sub r/20 do not have a significant effect on armor stability; (b) armor stability will not be significantly influenced by relative depth (d/L) or wave steepness (H/L); and (c) wave runup and rundown are not significantly affected by variation in first-underlayer stone weights (w sub 1) in the range (w sub r)/20

This book was released on 1989 with total page 1298 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Cities and Their Vital Systems asks basic questions about the longevity, utility, and nature of urban infrastructures; analyzes how they grow, interact, and change; and asks how, when, and at what cost they should be replaced. Among the topics discussed are problems arising from increasing air travel and airport congestion; the adequacy of water supplies and waste treatment; the impact of new technologies on construction; urban real estate values; and the field of "telematics," the combination of computers and telecommunications that makes money machines and national newspapers possible.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The present edition, with new title Coastal Engineering, is the enlarged and updated volume of the book origin-ally published under the title Coastal Hydrodynamics in 2012. The book provides an overview of world population and ocean resources, natural threats and man-made hazards, and their impact on coastal environment. It discusses the fundamentals of wind, waves, tides and fluid flow and describes commonly adopted wave theories in coastal engineering. The text explains the methods for estimating wave forces on coastal structures, procedures for the analysis of wave data, and sediment transport. Apart from the estimation of beach profile evolution and shoreline change, the book discusses key aspects related to the design of different coastal structures. NEW TO THE SECOND EDITION • Includes two new chapters on Beach Profile and Shoreline Evolution and Design of Breakwaters and Coastal Protective Structures • Colour photographs are appended at the end of the book KEY FEATURES • Worked-out examples will benefit the reader to understand and solve variety of coastal engineering problems. • Exercises given at the end of each chapter would benefit the reader to get exposed to a variety of practical problems related to coastal engineering. TARGET AUDIENCE • B.Tech./M.Tech. (Ocean Engineering/ Marine Engineering)
