Theory of Wave Agitation in a Harbor
A first order theory for the value of the wave agitation in a simple basin caused by an incident periodical gravity wave is presented. This study is a natural result of experimental results and previous theory. A harbor may be considered as a combination of discontinuities separated by a definite distance. The ultimate one, often in the form of a beach, is a total obstruction that may dissipate a part of the incident energy. The value of the agitation in such a basin is computed when the motion is predominantly two dimensional, as a function of the amplitude and period of the incident wave. A practical example applies the results of the theory directly.
