This book was released on 1982 with total page 78 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Weggel's (1981) method for calculating water wave forces on smooth, vertical walls is experimentally verified for an intermediate-length, non-breaking wave which approaches the structure at several small angles of incidence. Mach-stem reflection data is verified with respect to results from Perroud (1957) and Nielsen (1962). Cnoidal wave theory is applied to measured wave data to create pressure distributions, which are verified by measured pressure values. The cnoidal pressure distributions are graphically integrated to produce force values which are compared to values generated by Weggel's method. (Author).

Download or read book Forces Induced by Breaking Water Waves on a Vertical Wall written by J. J. Leendertse and published by . This book was released on 1961 with total page 102 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Analyses are presented of two-dimensional laboratory measurements of the forces induced by breaking waves on a vertical barrier placed on a plane with a one-to-ten slope. When a wave breaks on the barrier its momentum, calculated by use of the solitary wave theory, is found to be in substantial agreement with the impulse (force times time) on the barrier, measured from the initial impact to the time of momentum reversed (maximum of rise).

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This work describes the key results of the European research project called PROVERBS to develop and implement probability-based methods for the design of monolithic coastal structures and breakwaters subject to sea wave attacks. The issues treated include the hydrodynamic, geotechnical and structural processes involved in the wave-structure-foundation interactions and in the associated failure mechanisms.
Download or read book Forces Exerted by Waves Breaking Seaward of a Vertical Seawall written by Richard C. Delmonte and published by . This book was released on 1972 with total page 78 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The purpose of the paper is to examine theories and data related to wave pressures induced on a vertical seawall by the impingement of water waves which have broken seaward of the wall. The report compares the six articles found by the writer, which relate directly to this subject. Each of the independent studies is reviewed briefly in regard to its purpose, test procedure, theory proposed, test results and conclusions. Comparison of data and theory of the studies is then made.

Download or read book Water Wave Kinematics written by A. Tørum and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2012-12-06 with total page 751 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Water wave kinematics is a central field of study in ocean and coastal engineering. The wave forces on structures as well as sand erosion both on coastlines and in the ocean are to a large extent governed by the local distribution of velocities and accelerations of the water particles. Our knowledge of waves has generally been derived from measurements of the water surface elevations. The reason for this is that the surface elevations have been of primary interest and fairly cheap and reliable instruments have been developed for such measurements. The water wave kinematics has then been derived from the surface elevation information by various theories. However. the different theories for the calculation of water particle velocities and acceleration have turned out to give significant differences in the calculated responses of structures. In recent years new measurement techniques have made it possible to make accurate velocity measurements. Hence. the editors deemed it to be useful to bring together a group of experts working actively as researchers in the field of water wave kinematics. These experts included theoreticians as well as experimentalists on wave kinematics. It was also deemed useful to include experts on the response of structures to have their views from a structural engineering point of view on what information is really needed on water wave kinematics.
Download or read book Forces Induced by Breaking Waves on a Vertical Wall written by J. J. LEENDERTSE and published by . This book was released on 1962 with total page 2 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Analyses are presented of two-dimensional laboratory measurements of the forces induced by breaking waves on a vertical barrier placed on a plane with a one-to-ten slope. The deepwater wave heights ranged from 0.2 to 0.6 foot and their periods ranged from 1.9 to 3.3 seconds. The ratio between the depth of water in front of the barrier and the deepwater wave length was approximately 0.0115. The forces on the barrier in this study are usually characterized by a peak, which occurs immediately after the initial impact. The impulse of the peak is usually a small percentage of the cumulative impulse up to the time of momentum reversal. After this short-duration peak, the force decreases exponentially until after an appreciable part of the wave period - about one-sixth, depending on the wave steepness - when it rises again to a (second) maximum which occurs at the time of momentum reversal. This maximum in the force is approximately equal to the average force from the time of initial impact to the time of this maximum of rise (momentum reversal). (Author).
