HOW TO:
- Use linear theory, wave characteristic formulas
- Use wave tables (Weigel, 1966), formulas, software
- Calculate wave properties (pressure, velocity, acceleration)
- Use Rayleigh distribution for statistical waves
- Calculate wave energy density spectrum
- Make wave hindcast/forecast(s)
- Relate energy density spectrum to "significant" wave height
- Draw/Construct wave refraction diagram by hand
- Determine tidal variations and storm surge statistics at your site
- Understand wave transformations at coastal sites (shoaling, refraction, breaking, reflection)
- Calculate the longshore sediment transport rate
- Conduct an engineering sediment budget study
- Relate beach volume change to shoreline change (erosion/accretion)
- Conduct a beach sand gradation analysis (VAT)
- Estimate size of armor stone for breakwaters
- Understand how coastal zone management operates at your site (city, county, state, country)
- Estimate shoreline change using a one-line model
- Study further (references, journals, conference proceedings, reports, etc.)
FUTURE COURSES TO COVER:
- Dredging and Beach Engineering, CEE 687
- Design of Coastal Structures, CEE 782/882
- Coastal Hydrodynamics and Sediment Transport, CEE 788/888
- Computational Environmental Fluid Dynamics, CEE 789/889
