Keulegan, G.H. (author)Application of the energy method leads to a theoretical expression of the coefficient of transmission through a prismatic structure, constructed from rocks of uniform size, for long waves traversing the structure. When the dissipation in the voids is due partly to turbulent forces, the transmissions are expressed by a power formula . The formula...report 1973

Madsen, O.S. (author), White, S.M. (author)This report presents the results of a study of the reflection and transmission characteristics of porous rubble-mound breakwaters. An attempt was made at making the procedures entirely self-contained by introducing empirical relationships for the hydraulic characteristics of the porous material and by establishing experimentally an empirical...report 1976

Van den Berg, Y. (author)At the Cao Jing district in Shanghai, China, a landreclamation project is planned. The object of this project is to stimulate the natural process of sedimentation. This report comprises the results of a study concerning the optimum lay-out of dikes in the reclamation-area (see Fig. 0.1 and 0.2). In this report particularly the influence of the...master thesis 1988

Claessen, E.W.M. (author), Groenewoud, M.D. (author)This study is part of a Human Capital and Mobility Project called 'Dynamics of Beaches'. This project is a co-operation of six European universities which work together in solving some unknown aspects of a submerged breakwater by means of model experiments. Several agreements about the experiments were made between the partners. These agreements...master thesis 1995

Schiereck, G.J. (author), Booij, N. (author)There is an increasing awareness of the role of mangrove forests in coastal ecosystems and coastal protection. At the transition between ocean and land, they have to absorb the energy that comes from the motion of the water. Little quantitative in formation is available, however, on wave transmission in these forests. In this paper the...conference paper 1995

Van Oosten, R.P. (author), Peixó Marco, J. (author), Van der Meer, J.W. (author), Van Gent, M. (author), Verhagen, H.J. (author)The European Union funded project DELOS was focused on wave transmission and an extensive database on low-crested rubble mound structures was generated. During DELOS, new empirical wave transmission formulae were derived. These formulae still showed a considerable scatter due to a limited number of parameters included. Neural networks based on a...conference paper 2006

Vanlishout, V. (author)Low crested structures are primarily designed as a coastal defence mechanism, making the prediction of the energy in the lee of the structure of utmost importance. As wave transmission is a measure for the energy that passes the breakwater, experiments on oblique wave transmission have previously been performed by the European project DELOS ...master thesis 2008

Van der Hout, C.M. (author)For local protection of coastal stretches where buildings are situated in or form part of the coastal defense line the deep water reef concept has been developed. Two reef concepts were designed; a shore-parallel breakwater (of 3 km length) and a segmented breakwater (three blinds of 1 km length), both located in 10 m water depth at 1.5 km off...master thesis 2008

Schakel, M.D. (author), Smeulders, D. (author)The dispersion relation for seismoelectric wave propagation in poroelastic media is formulated in terms of effective densities comprising all viscous and electrokinetic coupling effects. Using Helmholtz decomposition, two seismoelectric conversion coefficients are derived, for an incident P-wave upon an interface between a compressible fluid and...journal article 2010

Vanlishout, V. (author), Verhagen, H.J. (author), Troch, P. (author)There is a growing interest in the application of submerged rubble mound breakwaters as coastal defence structures. As their defensive ability highly depends on the amount of wave energy remaining at their lee side, the accurate prediction of the energy in the lee of such structures is of utmost importance. Past experiments have shown that the...conference paper 2010

Quynh, V.V. (author)Field investigation by Vuong Van Quynh on the dissipation of wave energy in a mangrove field off the coast of southern Vietnam. Based on regression analysis a formula has been developed to determine the wave height decrease as function of the tree density and the tree sizes.report 2010

(author)In medical ultrasound, fundamental imaging (FI) uses the reflected echoes from the same spectral band as that of the emitted pulse. The transmission frequency determines the trade-off between penetration depth and spatial resolution. Tissue harmonic imaging (THI) employs the second harmonic of the emitted frequency band to construct images....journal article 2011

Biesheuvel, A.C. (author)From previous engineering projects it turned out that it is difficult to determine the transmitted wave height of floating breakwaters without performing physical models or using numerical models. In this thesis it is investigated which steps should be taken during the preliminary design process in order to predict the effectiveness (wave...master thesis 2013

Tavouktsoglou, N.S. (author)Wave transmission is a very important design parameter for submerged porous breakwater design, as it defines the dimensions of the breakwater as well as the cost and construction process. The spatial distribution of the wave transmission parameter influences the current pattern on the lee of the breakwater and therefore the sediment transport...master thesis 2013

Stive, M.J.F. (author), Phan, L. K. (author), Truong, S. T. (author), Phan, H. M. (author), Dao, H. T. (author)Over the last few decades, the Mekong Delta Coast has undergone many physical changes that have increased its vulnerability. Issues that have grown in importance are erosion, human occupation of coastal and estuarine mangroves, decreased sediment supply by the Mekong River and subsidence due to groundwater extraction. These issues have led to...conference paper 2020

Each OWC chamber is enclosed by two partially submerged vertical walls and the deck of the platform. An incident wave produces oscillation of the water column in each OWC chamber and hence air...journal article 2020
