Existence and location of Dvaraka city of Mahabharata era and its subsequent submergence - A reality or myth ?
(Aditya Prakashan, New Delhi, 1992)
Response of surface buoy moorings in steady and wave flows
(Oxford and IBH, New Delhi, 1992)
A numerical model has been developed to evaluate the dynamics of surface buoy mooring systems under wave and current loading. System tension response and variation of tension in the mooring line at various depths have been ...
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. ...
Design of a gravity corer for near shore sediment sampling
(NISCAIR, New Delhi, 1992)
For the purpose of geotechnical investigation a gravity corer has been designed and fabricated to obtain undisturbed sediment core samples from near shore waters. The corer was successfully operated at 75 stations up to ...
Diffraction of long period water waves around Mauritius island
(NISCAIR, CSIR, 1990)
Estimation of directional wave spreading
(NIO, Goa, 1991)
Directional properties of ocean waves are of great economic interest. The knowledge of wave directionality is important for the design of maritime structures and offshore operations. Two main aspects are considered for ...
Surfzone dynamics of the Konkan coast, India
(Oxford and IBH, New Delhi, 1992)
The Konkan Coast has the distinct morphological features than the rest of the Indian Coast. Field studies on beach variation, littoral environmental observation and longshore sediment transport were carried out for a period ...
Longshore sediment transport along the Indian coast
(NISCAIR, New Delhi, 1991)
An empirical sediment transport model has been developed based on longshore energy flux equation. Ship reported waves, published in Indian Daily Weather Reports, are compiled for 19 y and used for estimation of sediment ...
A longshore sediment transport estimation for the Indian coast
(Indian Society for Physical Sciences of the Oceans, 1992)
An empirical sediment transport model has been developed based on longshore energy flux equation. Study indicates that annual gross sediment transport rate is high (1.5 x 10 super(6) m super(3) to 2.0 x 10 super(6) m ...
Estimation of design wave heights based on exterme value statistics for Kakinada coast, Bay of Bengal
(NISCAIR, New Delhi, 1992)
Statistical analyses for longterm distribution of significant wave heights were performed using Lognormal, Weibull, Gumbel and Fretcher distributions for waves measured off Kakinada, Andhra Pradesh, India from June 1983 ...
