Waves and Wave Forces on Coastal and Ocean Structures (Advanced Series on Ocean Engineering) by Robert T. Hudspeth is a nonfiction available to read on EtoBox.
What is Waves and Wave Forces on Coastal and Ocean Structures (Advanced Series on Ocean Engineering) about?
This work focuses on: the physics of the fundamental dynamics of fluids and of semi-immersed Lagrangian solid bodies that are responding to wave-induced loads; the scaling of dimensional equations and boundary value problems, in order to determine a small dimensionless parameter - say, e - that may be used to linearize the equations and the boundary value problems so as to obtain a linear system; the replacement of differential and integral calculus with algebraic equations that require only algebraic substitutions instead of differentiations and integrations; and the importance of comparing numerical and analytical computations with data from laboratories and/or nature.
Who reads Waves and Wave Forces on Coastal and Ocean Structures (Advanced Series on Ocean Engineering)?
It is typically read by self-directed learners exploring a subject in depth.
Common subject areas: history, science, philosophy, social sciences.
