Abstract: A model for the decay of random waves in the surf zone that requires transformation of only one representative wave height [root-mean square (RMS)] without making any assumption about the shape of the probability-density ...

Abstract: A numerical model is developed to calculate the average net cross-shore transport rate and beach profile evolution under random waves. Cross-shore transport formulas for random waves are derived by superimposing the transport ...

Abstract: The effect of hydraulic transients on water and sewage pipes is studied by measuring the pressure and the strain in pipes simultaneously during field conditions. Both the axial and circumferential strains were recorded for ...

Abstract: This paper presents a discussion on the application and accuracy of roughness height formulas from a practical point of view. Such formulas have been proposed to describe the equivalent roughness height for plane bed ...

Abstract: A study of the scour around a group of piles in the field exposed to oscillatory waves was carried out. The main purpose was to derive simple predictive formulas for the geometric properties of the scour hole in terms of ...

Abstract: A model that describes the density-profile evolution in a confined region with a stably stratified fluid, where mixing is induced by a circular, nonswirling turbulent jet discharged vertically down into the fluid is presented ...

Abstract: Wave damping in vegetation in shallow lakes reduces resuspension and thereby improves the light climate and decreases nutrient recycling. In this study, wave transformation in reed (

Abstract: A numerical model that combines a random wave transformation and a wave-induced current model was developed in order to predict the wave and current fields around a detached breakwater. The wave field was determined using ...

Abstract: This paper describes a numerical modeling system called NMLONG that was developed to calculate the wave height, wave direction, mean water level, and steady‐state time‐averaged longshore current velocity across a multiple ...

Abstract: The velocity field downstream of a model impeller operating in water was measured using a two-component laser doppler velocimeter. The investigation focussed on the spatial development of the ...
