Abstract: Four in situ experiments on sediment erosion characteristics were conducted at the Anacostia River that runs through Washington, D.C. Supplemental erosion rate data were also obtained by carrying out five laboratory ...

Abstract: Motion within soft mud beds, wave‐induced bed shear stress, and wave attenuation under small amplitude waves are briefly examined using an analytic approach to gain insight into the mechanism by which coastal mud responds ...

Abstract: Laboratory tests show that the selected muds, with sediment concentration from 150 to 500 g/l, can resist shear force even after they were severely disturbed. These tests were conducted to clarify why the Voigt element, a ...

Abstract: The effects of bottom friction on the estimation of breaking‐wave heights, breaking locations, and breaking angles, determined by using the RCPWAVE model, were examined. We used direct and a wave‐ray approaches to simulate ...
