Abstract: The nonlinear theory developed by Chwang [1] is applied to calculate the hydrodynamic pressure force on an accelerating rectangular or circular container. The fluid inside the container is ...

Abstract: A flexible porous wave barrier is proposed to increase the effectiveness of wetlands habitat restoration projects by protecting cordgrass seedlings from wave action during the critical initial stages of growth following ...

Abstract: A set of analytical solutions for waves propagating past a combined submerged horizontal plate and vertical porous wall breakwater system is presented. The wave damping effect caused by the horizontal plate induced flow ...

Abstract: The results of a theoretical investigation into the interaction of linear water waves with a cylindrical breakwater surrounding a rigid vertical circular cylinder are reported. The breakwater itself consists of a bottom‐mounted, ...

Abstract: A pseudo three-dimensional (3D), time-dependent hydrodynamic flow model is developed to simulate flood flows at the confluence of Buffalo and White Oak Bayous in Houston, Texas. This model solves Reynolds-averaged Navier-Stokes ...
