Water Wave Attenuation Over Nearshore Underwater Mudbanks and Mud Berms

A shallow-water wave-mud interaction model is described and used to discuss design parameters for berms constructed from fine-grained sediment. Model application is presented to determine the stable elevation of the berms crest and the water column height above the crest in a given coastal environment. The model will predict wave attenuation and considers water to be inviscid and mud to be a highly viscous fluid. It is the simplest model applicable.
