Description:

Maximum bottom velocities caused by waves were calculated using digital computers. Four wave theories, Airy, Stokes third order, Cnoidal and Solitary, were applied in the computation. Results of the study were tabulated and presented graphically to highlight the importance of various parameters affecting the maximum bottom velocity.

Description:

The 1951 theory of the pressure structure function used the assumption of joint Gaussian velocities to obtain tracta~le results. That theory has recently been replaced by a new theory that does not use this assumption. The relationships between formu...
