Discussion of “Treatment of Wave Breaking and Total Absorption in a Mild-Slope Equation FEM Model” by Gian Mario Beltrami, Giorgio Bellotti, Paolo De Girolamo, and Paolo Sammarco
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Discussion of “<i>Deterministic and Probabilistic Design of Breakwater Armor Layers</i>” by Jentsje W. van der Meer (January, 1988, Vol. 114, No. 1)

Models for the Turbulent Diffusion Terms of Shallow Water Equations
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: The analysis of three different approximations of the turbulent diffusion terms, widely used to simulate shallow water flows, is carried out both analytically and experimentally. Based on the eddy viscosity concept, the ...
Stability of Mound Breakwater's Head and Trunk
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: The stability of a cubic armored breakwater head and trunk under monochromatic wave trains is experimentally studied. For the head there is a sector, roughly of 60°, where the unit stability is minimum. The stability ...
Dependence of Coefficient K on Grain Size
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: An analytical study to develop correlations between wave characteristics and longshore sediment transport along the perimeter of the Adra River Delta (Spain) has been carried out. Wave characteristics are based on visual ...
Tsunami Response in Semienclosed Tidal Basins Using an Aggregated Model
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: An aggregated model to evaluate tsunami response in semienclosed water bodies is presented in this work. The model is based on one-dimensional shallow water equations and can include long-wave external forcing such as a ...
