Wave–Current Interactions in Finite Depth
The energy, momentum, and mass-flux exchanges between surface waves and underlying Eulerian mean flows are considered, and terms in addition to the classical wave “radiation stress” are identified. The formulation is made in terms of the vertically integrated flow. The various terms are identified with other analyses and interpreted in terms of physical mechanisms, permitting reasonable estimat...
متن کاملSediment Dynamics and Wave-current Interactions
Described here is a model for the long-time formation and evolution of erodible beds under the action of waves and currents. It is an extention of a model rst developed by Craik and Leibovich, which describes the dynamics of Langmuir circulation cells, later adapted by McWilliams and Restrepo to model the interaction of a gravity wave eld with global oceanic ows.
متن کاملTurbulence Modeling and Wave-Current Interactions
The mechanics of rip currents are complex, involving interactions between waves, currents, water levels and the bathymetry, that present particular challenges for numerical models. Here, the effects of a grid-spacing dependent horizontal mixing on the wave-current interactions are studied. Near the shore, wave rays diverge from channels towards bar crests because of refraction by topography and...
متن کاملDevelopments in ducted water current turbines
Unlike conventional hydro and tidal barrage installations, water current turbines in open flow can generate power from flowing water with almost zero environmental impact, over a much wider range of sites than those available for conventional tidal power generation. Recent developments in current turbine design are reviewed and some potential advantages of ducted or “diffuser-augmented” current...
متن کاملHarmonic Current Predictors for Wind Turbines
The harmonic impact caused by wind turbines should be carefully investigated before wind turbines are interconnected. However, the harmonic currents of wind turbines are not easily predicted due to the variations of wind speed. If the harmonic current outputs can be predicted accurately, the harmonic impact of wind turbines and wind farms for power grids can be analyzed efficiently. Therefore, ...
