Publication: Journal of Waterway, Port, Coastal, and Ocean Engineering
Volume 142, Issue 4
In Eqs. (2), (4), and (5), the term cos α should be cot α. Essentially, Eq. (2) is the original Hudson formula, which was presented incorrectly. Also, the term for the incident wave height, H, was inadvertently omitted. These mistakes were then carried over into Eqs. (4) and (5).
The correct equations are presented herein.
W=γH3KD(Sr1)3cotα
(2)
Wrequired=γHtsunami3KD(Sr1)3cotα
(4)
W=AtγHtsunami3KD(Sr1)3cotα
(5)
