Breaking Wave Velocity Estimation

Breaking the Wave of Enthusiasm?

The natural history of all substantial innovative medical procedures generally follows the same archetype. A new, potentially revolutionary treatment approach for a certain disease is introduced and initial first-in-men, feasibility, and safety studies are conducted by expert operators in highly specialized centers and selected patients. Given promising initial results, this triggers a wave of ...

Numerical Simulation of Wave Breaking

Wave breaking is important for understanding of both sea wave dynamics and microwave scattering/emission of the ocean. Experimental studies of breaking waves are mostly related to tank measurements and to a lesser extent to field observations [1, 2]. Theoretical results regarding wave breaking are mostly obtained by numerical simulation [3]. Comparison of those with tank experiments leads to th...

Weakly-compressible SPH and Experimental modeling of periodic wave breaking on a plane slope

Breaking waves have ability to transport large quantities of sediment and significant impact on coastal structures morphology. Hence, modeling of wave breaking is an important subject in coastal and marine engineering. In this research, the periodic wave breaking process on a plane slope is studied experimentally and numerically. Laboratory experiments were conducted to record water surface ele...
