Influence of pile dimension on forces exerted by waves

Paape, A. / Breusers, H.N.C.

Both theory and model experiments are applied to establish relations between wave characteristics, shape and dimensions of piles and wave forces exerted; influence of typical features of flow pattern around pile on forces exerted is expressed in coefficients of drag and inertia; time-dependency of flow pattern leads to influence of pile dimensions relative to those of orbital motions; nature of forces exerted by oscillating flow is briefly discussed and illustrated by results of model experiments and computations; model investigations on piles are described, results of which are compared with computations for constant coefficients of drag and inertia.
