Journal ArticleDOI
Experimental investigation of wave propagation over a bar
S. Beji,Jurjen A. Battjes +1 more
TL;DR: In this article, a model for nonlinear conservative (non-dissipative) wave-wave interaction is proposed to simulate the evolution of the spectral shape, in conjunction with a (semi-empirical) model for the dissipation of the total energy due to breaking.
Journal ArticleDOI
Nonlinear saturation-based whitecapping dissipation in SWAN for deep and shallow water
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors investigated the effectiveness of a revised whitecapping source term in the spectral wind wave model SWAN (Simulating WAves Nearshore) that is local in frequency space, nonlinear with respect to the variance density and weakly dependent on the wave age.
Journal ArticleDOI
Shoaling of subharmonic gravity waves
TL;DR: In this paper, the energy budget of wave group-induced subharmonic gravity waves in the nearshore region is examined on the basis of the energy equation for long waves in conjunction with analyses of a high-resolution laboratory data set of one-dimensional random wave propagation over a barred beach.
Journal ArticleDOI
Wave height distributions on shallow foreshores
TL;DR: In this article, a model distribution consisting of a Rayleigh distribution, or a Weibull distribution with exponent equal to 2, for the lower wave heights and a higher exponent for the higher wave heights was proposed.
Journal ArticleDOI
Numerical simulation of nonlinear wave propagation over a bar
S. Beji,Jurjen A. Battjes +1 more
TL;DR: In this article, numerical computations based on a one-dimensional time domain Boussinesq model with improved dispersion characteristics are carried out to model relatively long, unidirectional waves propagating over a submerged obstacle.
