Book Description
A finite difference model for predicting the nearshore circulation due to wind and waves is presented which attempts to solve the same problem as an earlier model created by Birkemeier and Dalrymple (1975). Their model iteratively solved the linear set of conservation equations of both mass and momentum, which were time averaged (over one wave period) and depth integrated, for mean velocities and free surface displacements. The wave characteristics used in the momentum equations were found using the wave refraction and shoaling routines, including wave-current interaction, developed by Noda, et al. (1974). The model also included a linear bottom friction formulation as well as a surface wind stress capability. The present model discussed herein includes the addition of convective accelerations, horizontal mixing and a quadratic bottom friction term in the conservation of momentum equations. This bottom friction term is 'exact' in the sense that it includes the velocity vectors due to both mean and wave-induced currents. The model is applied to the cases of a single wave train impinging on a plane beach, a barred profile, and a bottom with a periodically spaced rip channel.
Masters Theses in the Pure and Applied Sciences

Book Description
Masters Theses in the Pure and Applied Sciences was first conceived, published, and dis seminated by the Center for lnformation and Numerica/ Data Analysis and Synthesis (C/NDAS) * at Purdue University in 1957, starting its coverage of theses with the academic year 1955. Beginning with Volume 13, the printing and dissemination phases of the ac tivity were transferred to University Microfilms/Xerox of Ann Arbor, Michigan, with the thought that such an arrangement would be more beneficia! to the academic and general scientific and technical community. After fi ve years of this joint undertaking we had concluded that it was in the interest of ali concerned if the printing and distribution of the volume were handled by an international publishing house to assure improved service and broader dissemination. Hence, starting with Volume 18, Masters Theses in the Pure and App/ied Sciences has been disseminated on a worldwide basis by Plenum Publishing Corporation of New York, and in the same year the coverage was broadened to include Canadian universities. Ali back issues can also be ordered from Plenum. We have reported in Volume 21 (thesis year 1976) a total of 10,586 theses titles from 25 Canadian and 219 United States universities. We are sure that this broader base for theses titles reported will greatly enhance the value of this important annual reference work.
