This monograph offers an account of the mathematical hypothesis of wave motion in liquids with a free surface, subjected to gravitational and other forces. It utilizes both potential and linear wave equation theories, together with applications such as Laplace and Fourier transf…
Offers an integrated account of the mathematical hypothesis of wave motion in liquids with a free surface, subjected to gravitational and other forces. Uses both potential and linear wave equation theories, together with applications such as the Laplace and Fourier transform met…
The theory of water waves has been a source of intriguing and often difficult mathematical problems for at least 150 years. Virtually every classical mathematical technique appears somewhere within its confines. Beginning with the introduction of the appropriate equations of flu…
Beginning with the introduction of the appropriate equations of fluid mechanics, Johnson considers classical problems in linear and non-linear water-wave theory, goes on to look at soliton type equations and closes with an introduction to viscosity.
Various types of wave models are presented in this book along with the theoretical assumptions, application range, and advantages and limitations of each model.
"Modeling large-scale wave fields and their interaction with coastal and offshore structures has become much more feasible over the last two decades with increases in computer speeds. Wave modeling can be viewed as an extension of wave theory applied to practical engineering thr…
Drawing from experts and top researchers from around the world, this book presents current developments in a variety of areas that impact offshore and ocean engineering
