Synopsis
Coastal Hydraulic Models: Practical design and operation of physical scale models — Learn how engineers use scaled laboratory models to simulate waves, tides, currents, and sediment movement in harbors, estuaries, and coastal shores.
This book provides a practical, state-of-the-art view of building and using physical models. It covers the principles of similarity, dimensional analysis, and model design, plus how to construct, operate, and verify models that reflect real coastal environments. Written for field designers and laboratory engineers, it balances theory with hands-on guidance and historic examples.
- How to choose scales and materials for undistorted and distorted models
- Techniques for wave generation, measurement, and data interpretation
- Case studies on harbor wave action, erosion, and coastal structures
- Cost considerations, project planning, and steps from design to final report

Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book unpacks the history of hydraulic modeling used to solve complex coastal engineering problems. The author traces the evolution of tidal, estuarine, and coastal models that predict wave patterns, storm surge, shoaling rates, and more. The author also shows how these models simulate how structures such as jetties, seawalls, and breakwaters will perform under a variety of environmental conditions, including storm-induced flooding and long-term changes to the coastline. Concepts are illustrated with examples of existing models and case studies, making this a valuable guide for practicing engineers, graduate students, and researchers concerned with coastal hazards and the design of coastal structures. The book represents decades of advances in coastal engineering modeling and is a comprehensive guide to physical modeling in coastal engineering. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format. In rare cases, an imperfection in the original, such as a blemish or missing page, may be replicated in the book. print-on-demand item. N° de réf. du vendeur 9781528423151_0
