Sundar, V.
Ocean wave dynamics for coastal and marine structures [electronic resource] / Vallam Sundar, Indian Institute of Technology, Madras, India. - Singapore : World Scientific, [2021] - 1 online resource (364 p.). - Advanced series on ocean engineering, 1793-074X .
Includes bibliographical references and index.
Introduction -- Basic fluid mechanics -- Ocean wave mechanics -- Deformation of waves -- Finite amplitude wave theories -- Characteristics of random waves -- Wave-induced forces on structures -- Ocean wave energy -- Physical modelling -- Laboratory generation of waves.
"The increase in exploration and exploitation of ocean resources, maritime trade and ocean energy have led to development of new concepts in the study of coastal and marine structures. These developments necessitate comprehensive and in-depth knowledge of ocean wave behavior in the offshore as well as in the nearshore, such as the phenomena of wave generation, propagation, deformation and its effects, which help to enlighten our understanding of its influence on coast and coastal and offshore structures structures. Ocean Wave Dynamics for Coastal and Marine Structures can serve as a textbook for students and researchers specializing in ocean engineering or related topics. It offers application of theoretical formulae to practical relevance through problem solving. This book will be of great help to professionals in major port harbors, offshore and marine industries as well as consultancy agencies"--
