CE 680 - MECHANICS OF WATER WAVES
Introduction to wave phenomena. Wave classification, measurement, generation, forecasting. Wave theories: linear, non-linear. Wave spectrum: basic concepts, analysis and derivation. Statistical analysis of waves: short and long term. Propagation in shallow water-refraction, diffraction, reflection, breaking, current effects. Wave effects like, run-up, overtopping and transmission. Littoral transport under wave action.
