  • Simulation of coastal processes in a circular wave basin

    Creator:
    Katzev, David H.
    Abstract:
    The circular wave basin provides a means of physically modeling the nearshore without the typical problems associated with end walls. Three different coastal processes were examined to demonstrate the use of a spiral wavemaker in a circular wave basin. These were longshore currents, shear waves, and groin circulation. A beach...

  • The measurement of nearshore bathymetry on intermediate and dissipative beaches

    Creator:
    Côté, Jessica Magee
    Abstract:
    In 1996, Beach et al. first proposed the idea of mounting an echo-sounder on a Waverunner to measure nearshore beach profiles. This thesis discusses the Coastal Profiling System, an extension of the original work, which has been utilized to measure nearshore bathymetry at selected sites along the coasts of North...
