An unsteady wave driver for narrowbanded waves: modeling nearshore circulation driven by wave groups
In this paper, we derive an unsteady refraction–diffraction model for narrowbanded water waves for use in computing coupled wave–current motion in the nearshore. The end result is a variable coefficient, nonlinear Schrödinger-type wave driver (describing the envelope of narrow-banded incident waves) coupled to forced nonlinear shallow water equations (describing steady or unsteady mean flows dr...
متن کاملWave Breaking and Wave Driven Flow in the Nearshore
Understanding wave dissipation in the nearshore is approached through modeling of field observations obtained across a variety of beach profiles and under a wide range of wave conditions. Wave breaking data are obtained remotely from video recordings of the surf zone, and image processing techniques subsequently used to detect and quantify the position and time of wave breaking occurrences over...
متن کاملNearshore Wave Modeling with High-Order Boussinesq-Type Equations
The accuracy of using high-order Boussinesq-type models as compared to the typical order models is examined in this paper. The high-order model used is the two-layer model of Lynett and Liu in 2004, which captures both linear and nonlinear wave evolution up to kh 6. The physical situations examined all involve nearshore breaking, and an eddy-viscosity type breaking model is adopted for the two-...
متن کاملNearshore Wave-topography Interactions
The principal focus of this program has been on understanding the nearshore problem from a top down point of view. At time scales longer than storm periods and length scales larger than 100 meters, the behavior of the nearshore appears surprisingly complex, with subtantial interannual variability and variability on all scales. We believe that this results from feedback between the fluid and bat...
متن کاملNumerical modeling of the effects of wave energy converter characteristics on nearshore wave conditions
Modeled nearshore wave propagation was investigated downstream of simulated wave energy converters (WECs) to evaluate overall nearand far-field effects of WEC arrays. Model sensitivity to WEC characteristics and WEC array deployment scenarios was evaluated using a modified version of an industry standard wave model, Simulating WAves Nearshore (SWAN), which allows the incorporation of device-spe...
