Ocean Wave

A. Professor: Hung-Chu Hsu

B. Course Summary:

    a. Introduction to wave mechanics

    b. A review of hydrodynamics and vector analysis

    c. Formulation of periodic water wave boundary value problems

    d. Solution to linearized water wave B.V.P. for a horizontal bottom

    e. Engineering properties of progressive waves and standing waves

    f. Transformation of waves entering shallow water

C. Course Goal:

  Understanding the characteristics of ocean waves by setting up the boundary condition of the wave theory, simplify it and solve it.

  Introducing the characteristics of the movement of waves, like pressure of waves, energy of waves, and the behavior of waves when they shallow alongshore.
