Waves in Open Channels

Publication: Journal of Engineering Mechanics
Volume 110, Issue 6

Abstract

Gravity waves in trapezoidal channels and channels with curved bottoms, including sloshing, longitudinal, and combined modes, are treated. Analytical‐numerical solutions are given for the wave frequency and the velocity potential for waves in trapezoidal channels, and analytical solutions based on the shallow‐water theory are obtained for waves in curved channels.
