  • Waves on unsteady currents

    Creator:
    Haller, Merrick C. and Özkan-Haller, H. Tuba
    Abstract:
    Models for surface gravity wave propagation in the presence of currents often assume the current field to be quasi-stationary, which implies that the absolute wave frequency is time invariant. However, in the presence of unsteady currents or time-varying water depth, linear wave theory predicts a time variation of the absolute...

  • Remote sensing of wave roller lengths in the laboratory

    Creator:
    Haller, Merrick C. and Catalán, P. A.
    Abstract:
    The optical intensity signals from surf zone waves in a laboratory flume are analyzed using several different phase‐averaging techniques, and a methodology is developed for estimating wave roller lengths and local wave dissipation. The intensity signals (i.e., phase‐averaged intensity profiles) of individual breaking waves are compared with the wave profiles...
