Numerical modelling of nearshore wave transformation
(Publ. and Inf. Dir., New Delhi, India, 1994)
A software has been developed for numerical refraction study based on finite amplitude wave theories. Wave attenuation due to shoaling, bottom friction, bottom percolation and viscous dissipation has also been incorporated. ...
The wave vane - A device to measure the breaker angle
(Elsevier, 1993)
Measurement and prediction of tides for Gopalpur Post, Orissa
(CWPRS, Pune, 1994)
Wave statistics around the Indian coast based on ship observed data
(NISCAIR, New Delhi, 1991)
Wave characteristics around the Indian Coast are discussed based on the ship reported wave data compiled over 19 y (1968-1986). This data have been compared with instrumentally measured waves at 2 locations (Kakinada on ...
Planning and management of the coastal zone in India - A perspective
(Taylor and Francis, 1992)
India's coastal zone has, since ancient times, played a very significant role in socioeconomic, political, and defense developments. For a developing country like India with a vast coastal zone, there is a need for ...
Shoreline dynamics of the Lakshadweep Islands
(NISCAIR, New Delhi, 1993)
Lakshadweep group of islands are mainly coral atolls. Fringing reefs protect these small islands from the attack of waves. This paper describes the waves and currents acting on Kalpeni, Kavaratti, Minicoy, Agatti, Kadamat ...
Field measurement on longshore current variation between Ratnagiri and Mangalore, west coast of India
(CWPRS, Pune, 1992)
The daily measurements on longshore current velocity and direction were carried out at selected 12 stations along the coast between Ratnagiri and Mangalore, India. The directional wave data measured at Karwar were used to ...
Coastal processes along the shorefront of Chilka Lake, east coast of India
(NISCAIR, New Delhi, 1993)
Chilka Lake (Orissa, India) inlet mouth is exposed to high annual littoral drift of about 1 x 10 super(6) m super(3). The inlet mouth was observed to migrate about 500 m northward during the period of one year study. ...
Diffraction of long period water waves around Mauritius island
(NISCAIR, CSIR, 1990)
