Wave characteristics off Visakhapatnam coast during a cyclone
(Indian Academy of Sciences, 2004)
Waves were measured using a directional waverider buoy off Visakhapatnam, east coast of India during the passage of a cyclone in November 1998. The maximum wave height observed during the passage was 5.74 m, whereas this ...
Characteristics of waves off Goa, west coast of India
(Coastal Research Foundation, 2000)
Directional wave measurements were carried out using Datawell directional waverider buoy off Goa along west coast of India during the south west monsoon period in 1996 and the results are presented. Theoretical joint ...
Coastal processes along the Indian coastline
(Indian Academy of Sciences, 2006)
Based on the measured data, wave height and current speed at a few locations are presented along with the estimated sediment transport rates. The maximum significant wave height recorded during the passage of cyclone along ...
Longshore sediment transport rate-measurement and estimation, central west coast of India
(Elsevier, 2003)
Measurements of the longshore sediment transport rate (LSTR) along the surf zone at a 4-km-long beach on the central west coast of India were made over a 4-month period. During the study, both the lateral and vertical ...
Littoral drift sources and sinks along the Indian coast
(Indian Academy of Sciences, 2001)
Numerous theoretical and field studies have been carried out to quantify the volume and direction of littoral sediment transport along the Indian coast. Nevertheless, very little effort has been made to identify the sources ...
Estimation of wind speed and wave height during cyclones
(Elsevier, 2003)
Wave and wind characteristics based on the cyclones, in the vicinity of the Nagapattinam coastline (east coast of India) were estimated. In all, 11 cyclones have crossed near the study region during 1960-1996. For the four ...
Shoreline changes in and around the Thubon River mouth, Central Vietnam
(Indian Association of Sedimentology, 2007)
Application of GENESIS model (GENEralized model for Simulating Shoreline change) for studying the shoreline change in and around the Thubon River Mouth, Central Vietnam is presented in this paper The input parameters used ...
Soft and hard computing approaches for real-time prediction of currents in a tide-dominated coastal area
(IMechE, 2007)
The prediction of tidal currents in the coastal region on a real-time or online basis is useful in taking operation- and planning-related decisions such as towing of vessels and monitoring of oil slick movements. Currently, ...
Variations in wave direction estimated using first and second order Fourier coefficients
(Elsevier, 2004)
In most design applications such as alignment of the berthing structure and breakwater alignment, it becomes necessary to determine the direction of design wave. There are two different approaches to determine wave direction. ...
Variations in nearshore processes along Nagapattinam coast, India
(Indian Academy of Sciences, 2002)
Directional wave data collected at 10 m water depth, at 2 km distance off Nagore from March 1998 to February 1999, were used to estimate the longshore currents and longshore sediment transport rate considering the sea and ...
