Wave Propagation in Circular Jettied Channels

Publication: Journal of Waterway, Port, Coastal, and Ocean Engineering
Volume 124, Issue 1

Abstract

A model for wave propagation in circular jettied channels is presented. The model combines a polar coordinates parabolic equation with a model for wave propagation in jettied channels. The effect of the jetties on the wave field within a circular jettied channel is discussed. Model results for the curved section of the Mission Bay channel agree qualitatively well with field measurements.
