Book Description
This report describes the formulation and use of a directional spectral wave model which can be used in shallow water. The model simulates the transformation of a directional wave spectrum over an arbitrary two dimensional bathymetry allowing for the effects of atmospheric input, bottom friction, bottom percolation, nonlinear wave interaction, shoaling, refraction, and equilibrium range energy limitation. The user has the option to include or exclude these sources and sink terms in any combination desired. The formulation of each of these terms is summarized. A description of the computer code is provided including a summary of the purpose of each subroutine and the format for data input and output of results. A sample application is provided showing the transformation of a wave spectrum from deep to shallow water over a uniformly sloping bottom.

A User's Guide to SHALWV (Shallow-Water Wave): Numerical Model for Simulationof Shallow-Water Wave Growth, Propagation, and Decay. Report. 2. SHALWV--Hurricane Wave Modeling and Verification
Author: Robert E. Jensen
Publisher:
ISBN:
Category :
Languages : en
Pages : 51
Book Description
This report is the second in a series of user's guides to SHALW, a numerical model that simulates shallow-water wave growth, propagation, and decay in a directional spectrum over an arbitrary bathymetry. The original report (Instruction Report CERC-86-2) was titled 'A User's Guide to SHALWV: Numerical Model for Simulation of Shallow-Water Wave Growth Propagation, and Decay'. Future enhancements to the model will be added to the series. The report herein presents a numerical model for estimating hurricane wave conditions in arbitrary water depths, including a discussion of wind input to SHALWV, changes in the model, and model verification. The major changes made to the model allow a better representation of wind wave growth in rapidly turning winds. (Author).

Flood Hydrology
Author: V.P. Singh
Publisher: Springer Science & Business Media
ISBN: 9400939574
Category : Science
Languages : en
Pages : 424
Book Description
Floods constitute a persistent and serious problem throughout the United States and many other parts of the world. They are responsible for losses amounting to billions of dollars and scores of deaths annually. Virtually all parts of the nation--coastal, moun tainous and rural--are affected by them. Two aspects of the problem of flooding that have long been topics of scientific inquiry are flood frequency and risk analyses. Many new, even improved, tech niques have recently been developed for performing these analyses. Nevertheless, actual experience points out that the frequency of say a 100-year flood, in lieu of being encountered on the average once in one hundred years, may be as little as once in 25 years. It is therefore appropriate to pause and ask where we are, where we are going and where we ought to be going with regard to the technology of flood frequency and risk analyses. One way to address these ques tions is to provide a forum where people from all quarters of the world can assemble, discuss and share their experience and expertise pertaining to flood frequency and risk analyses. This is what con stituted the motivation for organizing the International Symposium on Flood Frequency and Risk Analyses held May 14-17, 1986, at Louisiana State University, Baton Rouge, Louisiana.

STWAVE: Steady-State Spectral Wave Model. Report 1: User's Manual for STWAVE Version 2.0
Author:
Publisher:
ISBN:
Category :
Languages : en
Pages : 0
Book Description
This report describes application of the steady-state spectra wave model STWAVE. The purpose of STWAVE is to provide an easy-to-apply, flexible, and robust model for nearshore wind-wave growth and propagation. Recent upgrades to the model include wave-current interaction and steepness-induced wave breaking. STWAVE has also been incorporated into the Surface-Water Modeling System, which provides a user interface and supporting software for grid generation, interpolation of current fields, generation of input spectra, and visualization of model output.
