TL;DR: In this article, the authors measured the wave-induced dynamic pressures around surface piercing twin-tandem rigid vertical circular cylinders fixed at the bottom of a wave flume, obtained using the source distribution method, compared with the measured values.

TL;DR: In this paper, the time histories of wave elevation and the two horizontal in line and transverse velocity components measured in a groin field were subjected to time domain analysis and the variation of the wave and velocity characteristics with respect to the time of measurement at a particular location and its variation at different locations within the groin field at a specific instant of time were presented and discussed in detail.
Abstract: The time histories of wave elevation and the two horizontal in line and transverse velocity components measured in a groin field were subjected to time domain analysis. The variation of the wave and velocity characteristics with respect to the time of measurement at a particular location and its variation at different locations within the groin field at a particular instant of time are presented and discussed in detail in this paper. In addition, the validation of the linear theory in predicting the wave kinematics in the direction of the wave propagation from the measured wave elevations is examined on assumption that wave directional variability is small. Such investigations for the nearshore zone are scanty especially for a groin field.
