Combined Reflection and Diffraction by a Vertical Wedge (Classic Reprint) - Softcover

Inhaltsangabe

Analytical insights into how waves reflect and diffract around a vertical wedge, with diagrams you can use in design work.

This technical report presents an analytical solution for the combined reflection and diffraction of water waves by a vertical wedge of arbitrary angle. It covers a plane, monochromatic incident wave field in a constant-depth water setting and develops results that support practical coastal engineering analysis. The work includes diagrams showing amplification factors for two notable cases and documents a reusable subroutine for computing outcomes at any wedge angle.

- Understand the boundary value formulation for wave reflection and diffraction by a vertical wedge
- Learn the analytical approach and how it translates to practical diagrams for design
- See results for a thin semi-infinite breakwater and for a 90-degree wedge
- Access the WEDGE subroutine for applying the method to arbitrary wedge angles

Ideal for readers involved in coastal engineering, wave modeling, and numerical analysis of breakwaters and entryways.
