On the Structure of the Velocity Field over Progressive Mechanically-Generated Water Waves
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: The structure of the velocity field over a propagating wave of fixed frequency is examined. The vertical and horizontal velocities were measured in a transformed Eulerian wave-following frame of reference in a wind-wave ...
Momentum and Energy Transfer in Wind Generation of Waves
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Complete expressions for wind momentum and energy transfer to wind-generated waves are derived based on a boundary-layer integral method. The airflow and wave measurements as made by Wu et al. (1977, 1979) are used to ...
