Abstract
Study of 3D shear waves has been carried out utilizing the quasi-3D nearshore circulation model SHORECIRC. The emphasis of this study is to investigate the effect of the 3D lateral mixing has on the shear waves, and vice-versa. The kinetic energy equation for the mean flow and for the shear waves has been derived. The momentum and energy balance have been discussed using the numerical results from idealized Duck bathemetry and the wave condition on Oct. 16, 1994. The effect of the 3D dispersion due to the depth varying current on shear waves has been illustrated.
