Iterative solution procedures for solving the complete mild-slope wave (combined refraction-
diffraction) equation are developed. Existing models for investigating wave refraction …

An evolution equation is developed from the mild slope equation by using the perturbation
method. For large times the solutions of the model will approach results of the elliptic mild …

The multigrid method is used to solve very efficiently the elliptic form of the mild-slope
equation for water wave propagation over large areas in the presence of currents, taking into …

While studying the bathymetric transformation of ocean waves propagating into a coastal
region, the engineer often invokes the concept of the significant wave to represent the …

Based on the linearized long-wave equation, two new analytical solutions are obtained
respectively for the propagation of long surface gravity waves around a conical island and …

Ports and harbors are the center of social, cultural, economic, governmental, military
activities and are closely tied to the national economy of the continental United States. Many …

Long-period waves pose a threat to coastal communities as they propagate from deep
ocean to shallow coastal waters. At the coastline, such waves have a greater height and …

Traditional elliptic harbor wave models are based on the assumptions that the exterior sea
region (ie the region outside the computational grid) is of constant depth and that the exterior …

This study examines the fidelity of coastal environments depicted in open-world video
games, aiming to evaluate the accuracy and representation of various coastal features …

A numerical model using the dual reciprocity boundary element method (DRBEM) is
developed to study the combined refraction and diffraction of water waves propagating …
