ON WAVE DEFORMATION AFTER BREAKING

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...

A Study on Wave Breaking and Wave Interaction

This paper aims to apply two methods namely, Vortex Method and Higher Order Spectral Method to study the wave breaking and wave interaction. The breaking of shallow water gravity wave is performed using Vortex method, while the interaction between two gravity waves is carried out using Higher Order Spectral (HOS) method. In Vortex method an interface defined by a density or velocity discontinui...

On the occurrence of wave breaking

The practicality of common wave breaking criteria is reviewed. Video recordings of the sea surface taken from aboard R/P FLIP are used to extract breaking wave properties. The key quantity is Λ(c)dc, the length of breaking crests per unit area propagating with speeds in the range (c, c+ dc). Independent of wave field development, Λ(c) is found to peak at intermediate wave scales and to drop off...
