Dronkers, J.J. (author), Schönfeld, J.C. (author), Waalewijn, A. (author)A survey is given of the established practice of tidal computations in the Netherlands. The dynamical analysis of tidal elevations and currents in shallow waters is of great practical interest when coastal engineering projects are undertaken, like the Zuiderzee or the Delta project, both in the Netherlands. Tidal computations have to be based...report 1959

Svasek, J.N. (author), Battjes, J.A. (author)Coastal engineering problems concerning wind waves and swell can be solved with the aid of hydraulic or mathematical models. The irregular wave field i.e. the state of the sea surface can be described in a sufficient way for engineering problems either by parameters such as significant wave height and mean wave period, or in the form of power...conference paper 1969

Dean, R.G. (author)Analytical representation of shallow water wave phenomena is complicated due, in part, to the fact that nonlinear features are important in a predominant number, if not all , problems of shallow water wave motion. It therefore may not even be approximately valid to utilize the Airy wave theory and to assume that various wave components behave...report 1970

Radder, A.V. (author)In this report,a description is given of some approximation methods, to solve the problem of short wave propagation in shoaling water. The problem is stated as an elliptic initial value problem, which is in general not properly posed. After reduction of the wave equation to the Helmholtz equation, the transition to amplitude and phase is...report 1974

De Vriend, H.J. (author)The relationship between streamline curvature and bed resistance in shallow water flow with little side constraint, as derived in 1970 by H.J. Schoemaker, is reconsidered. Schoemaker concluded that the bed resistance causes the curvature of a free streamline to grow exponentially with the distance along this streamline, thus giving rise to a...report 1979

Booij, R. (author), Pennekamp, J.G.C. (author)Knowledge of the secondary flow is essential for predictions about the morphology of alluvial bottoms in tidal channels. In this research the determination of the secondary flow is based on a known depth averaged velocity field. The depth averaged velocities must be computed with a high accuracy in order to make possible a reasonable...report 1983

Holthuijsen, L.H. (author), Booij, N. (author)Formulate a numerical wave hindcast model which can be used to obtain realistic estimates of wave conditions in the Oosterschelde as input to a numerical geomorphological model. A directionally decoupled, parametric wave hindeast model is recommended that includes parameterized versions of conventional bottom- and current refraction, some degree...report 1983

Klopman, G. (author), Stive, M.J.F. (author)As an alternative to a more or less standard derivation procedure for design wave heights in relatively shallow water, two improvements of the procedure are suggested which lead to less conservative results. These improvements are based on observations of shallow water effects on both the decay of total wave energy density and on the extreme...conference paper 1989

Dalrymple, R.A. (author)The propagation of waves from offshore to onshore is a difficult problem due to the mathematical complexities of the governing equations and the degree of uncertainty of the bathymetry over which the waves must travel. In this lecture, the various methods of transforming offshore wave trains to shallow water are discussed. First, single wave...report 1992

Tukker, J.

Gao, Q. (author), Radder, A.C. (author), Booij, N. (author)The numerical wave model CREON is developed to predict the propagation and transformation of wave properties in shallow water. In Gao et al. (1993), which is referred to as Part I in the following, a description is given of the theoretical and numerical treatment of the model. In the present report, we present various computational results. The...report 1994
