Abstract: Based on the spectral eddy viscosity model of bottom boundary layers, the spectral representation of bottom friction and dissipation for irregular waves is reduced to an equivalent monochromatic wave representation. The ...

Abstract: econd-order analytical solutions are constructed for various long waves generated by a gravity wave train propagating over finite variable depth h(x) using a multiphase Wentzel?Kramers?Brillouin (WKB) method. It is found ...

Abstract: The one-dimensional reflection of a gravity wave at a discontinuity in bottom slope is calculated from a Green?Liouville (WKB) solution of the mild-slope equation.

Abstract: AbstractWind and current effects on the evolution of a two-dimensional dispersive focusing wave group are investigated using a two-phase flow model. A Navier?Stokes solver is combined with the Smagorinsky subgrid-scale ...

Abstract: Theoretical solutions for the wave bottom boundary layer (WBL) over a sloping bed are compared with field measurements in the nearshore zone. The WBL theory is constructed using both viscoelastic?diffusion and conventional ...
