Wave Kinematics — Measurement, Modelling and Application

Buchan, S. J.

Measurements of near bottom wave-induced pressures and orthogonal, horizontal velocity components, at several locations around Australia, have demonstrated that directional wave spectra and wave kinematics may be routinely monitored.

This presentation briefly addresses the measurement system, discusses various analysis techniques which have been applied to the data, and illustrate subsequent application of the information in numerical wave modelling and determination of marine engineering criteria.

Particular applications include studies on shallow water pipeline stability, nearshore wave penetration, dredge spoil dispersion and scour.
