Observations and experiments on solitary wave deformation
Series of experiments were run in two-dimensional wave channel to study solitary wave deformation on plane slopes ranging from horizontal to vertical; test objectives included verification of deformation theories, delineation of shoaling processes associated with various beach slopes, and examination of limit-height-wave concept; results showed that deformation process can be classified as function of ratio of initial wave height to water depth and beach slope; deformation theory for reflection from vertical wall was verified, but theory for low slopes was found to be only qualitatively accurate; finally, redefinition of limit-height wave on sloping beaches is suggested.
