.... Wave breaking is treated as discontinuities in the model and computed by discarding Boussinesq terms. The numerical results are compared against the experimental data and computed results from others. The variation of wave height, mean water level (MWL) and wave spectrum along reef profiles...

... between submerged breakwaters and seawall. On the other hand, due to the wave reflection from the effect of seawall, the spatial periodic variations of wave height and mean water level behind the submerged breakwater was found on the on-offshore direction. The influence of the submerged breakwaters...

... ABSTRACT To find more desirable wave field behind a submerged breakwater in terms of wave interception, mean water level change, wave profile, and so on, and to cope with the construction cost of the submerged breakwater which increases quadratically as the water depth increases, we considered...

... ABSTRACT A quartic approximation of the nonlinear inundation effect of Morison-type wave loading is proposed. Using Taylor series expansion, the inundation force due to varying free water surface can be represented by a ‘concentrated load’, acting on the structure at the mean water level...

... ABSTRACT A wave-current numerical model is developed for interactions between waves and current fields. Investigations are focused on the effects of currents on surface fluctuations, wave height and mean water level (set-down) distributions. Also, experimental studies on wave-current...
