Experimental Investigation of Effects of Coastal Morphology on N-Waves
Journal Title: International Journal of Environment and Geoinformatics - Year 2015, Vol 2, Issue 2
Abstract
A Leading Depression N-wave which consists of a negative and a positive amplitude solitary wave was generated with the help of a special designed wave pallet at Istanbul Technical University Hydraulic Laboratory. In addition, generated N-Wave was verified by using verification of related analytical equations. Furthermore, the wave flume was narrowed by narrowing angles of 5, 10 and 15 for analogy to morphology changes in coastal areas. It was determined that water level differences and phase shifts occurred to the narrowing effects.
