Small Amplitude Wave Theory
Computing the main parameters of a Water wave, using the small amplitude wave theory.
Inputs:
d = water deep (m)
H = wave height (m)
T = wave period (s)
z = depth below the SWL (m)
anitime = time animation (s)
Outputs:
k = wave number
sigma = Frecuency
L = wave length
C = wave phase velocity
Cg = wave group velocity
Energy = energy density
Energy_flux = energy flux
Sxx = Radiation stress (onshore)
Syy = Radiation stress (longshore)
steepness = wave steepness
ursell = Ursell parameter
eta = wave profile
u, w = water particle velocity
ax, az = water particle accelerations
tseta, epsilon = water particle displacements
p = subsurface pressure
Syntax:
Airy(h,H,T,z,anitime)
Notes:
none.
Example:
[k,sigma,L,C,Cg,Energy,Energy_flux,Sxx,Syy,ursell,steepness,eta,u,w,ax,az,tseta,epsilon,p] = SmallAmplitude(50,3,10,5,5);
