Water Waves and Circular Damping Regions

Publication: Journal of Waterway, Port, Coastal, and Ocean Engineering
Volume 110, Issue 2

Abstract

An analytical formulation is presented for the calculation of the water wave field in and around a circular region of wave damping, such as might occur over a kelp bed. Figures show the instantaneous wave field and wave amplitude along several transects across the circular damping region.
