This book was released on 1976 with total page 178 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A two-dimensional time-dependent numerical storm surge model using orthogonal curvilinear coordinates is presented. The curvilinear coordinate system is based on a conformal mapping of the interior region bounded by the actual coast, the seaward boundary (taken as the 180-meter depth contour) and two parallel lateral boundaries into a rectangle in the image plane. Three regions of the Continental Shelf of the Gulf of Mexico and two regions of the eastern seaboard of the United States are mapped. Since the transformation is conformal, the associated modifications of the vertically integrated equations of motion and mass continuity are minimized. The coast, seaward boundary, and the lateral boundaries of the computing grid are straight lines in the image plane thus facilitating the application of the boundary conditions. The final coordinates allow for the greatest resolution near the coast in a central area of principal storm surge development and modification. The model is employed in the simulation of the storm surge induced by Hurricanes Carla (1961) and Camille (1969) which crossed the gulf coast of the United States and Hurricane Gracie (1959) which crossed the east coast. Analytical interpretations of the wind and atmospheric pressure-forcing functions are used in the computations. (Author).

Book Storm Surge Simulation in Transformed Coordinates

Download or read book Storm Surge Simulation in Transformed Coordinates written by and published by . This book was released on 1976 with total page 168 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This report is published to provide coastal engineers with the results of a study to develop an operational program for numerical simulation of storm surges on a given segment of the Continental Shelf, using a curvilinear coordinate system. The report consists of two volumes. This Volume discusses the theory and application of the transformation procedure for generating the curvilinear shelf coordinate system for particular regions, and the theory, numerical algorithm, and application of the storm surge program for simulation of Hurricanes Carla (1961), Camille (1969), and Gracie (1959). Volume II presents the program documentation and the coded programs for carrying out the coordinate transformation (CONFORM), for establishing the spatial lattice (GRID), and for carrying out the storm surge calculations on the shelf (SSURGE). The work was carried out under the wave mechanics program of the U.S. Army Coastal Engineering Research Center (CERC).

Book Numerical Modeling of Ocean Dynamics

Download or read book Numerical Modeling of Ocean Dynamics written by Zygmunt Kowalik and published by World Scientific. This book was released on 1993 with total page 508 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: While there are several excellent books dealing with numerical analysis and analytical theory, one has to practically sift through hundreds of references. This monograph is an attempt to partly rectify this situation. It aims to introduce the application of finite-difference methods to ocean dynamics as well as review other complex methods. Systematically presented, the monograph first gives a detailed account of the basics and then go on to discuss the various applications. Recognising the impossibility of covering the entire field of ocean dynamics, the writers have chosen to focus on transport equations (diffusion and advection), shallow water phenomena ? tides, storm surges and tsunamis, three-dimensional time dependent oceanic motion, natural oscillations, and steady state phenomena. The many aspects covered by this book makes it an indispensable handbook and reference source to both professionals and students of this field.
