Discussion of “<i>Wave Data Discretization for Shore Line Processes</i>” by Bernard Le Mehaute, John D. Wang, and Chia‐Chi Lu (February, 1983)
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Reservoir Model of Ebb-Tidal Shoal Evolution and Sand Bypassing
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: A mathematical model is presented for calculating the change in volume and sand-bypassing rate at ebb-tidal shoals. Conceptually and mathematically, the ebb-tidal shoal is distinguished from bypassing bars that emerge from ...
Estimate of Breaking Wave Height Behind Structures
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: A useful and computationally simple method is given for estimating the wave breaker height and angle behind structures on a uniformly sloping bottom. The breaking wave height behind a structure is assumed to be proportional ...
Review of <i>Coastal Processes with Engineering Applications</i> by Robert G. Dean and Robert A. Dalrymple
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Acts of Nature and Potential Acts of Terrorists: Contrast Relative to Water Resource Systems
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Comment on the Announced Death of Stationarity
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Hydraulic Study of Multiple Inlet System: East Matagorda Bay, Texas
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: The hydrodynamic feasibility of a proposed third inlet to East Matagorda Bay, Texas, was examined by application of a two-dimensional, depth-averaged hydrodynamic model. Wind-driven flows in this remote, shallow bay ...
Generation of Harmonics by Sea Breeze in Nontidal Water Bodies
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: The sea breeze introduces harmonics of its diurnal cycle into water bodies, which can be notable for strong sea breeze and microtidal and nontidal conditions. The harmonics can be of the same magnitude as those produced ...
Longshore Sediment Transport Rate Measured by Short-Term Impoundment
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: The total longshore sediment transport rate in the surf zone was measured at a temporary groin installed at Indian Rocks Beach, west central Florida. Approximate mass balance between updrift accumulation and downdrift ...
