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.

A novel approach to automatic detection of interest points in multiple facial images
The human face includes different colors and forms due to its complexity. Therefore, facial image processing comprises even more problems than image processing of other objects. Interest point detection is one of the imp...
Morphologic Features of Kapıdağ Peninsula and its Coasts (NWTurkey) using by Remote Sensing and DTM
Although it is an inland sea, the Sea of Marmara and its surroundings have rather complex morphology due to the active tectonics of the North Anatolian Fault (NAF) zone in this region. The Kapıdağ Peninsula which is loca...

Rapid progress in digital technology enables us to create three-dimensional models using digital images. Low cost, time efficiency and accurate results of this method put to question if this technique can be an alternati...
The Reflection of the Mesopotamia Water Transportations in Figurative Arts
The Euphrates and the Tigris, which were the natural sources for the communities living in Mesopotamia, influenced the culture and the art of this civilization. We see this situation on the reliefs, wall paintings, and e...
Geomorphological features of Marmara Sea Islands
The Sea of Marmara is located on a continental crust. The Sea of Marmara, which is a remnant of the Sarmasien period of the Miocene Sea, is an inland sea (Okay, 2007). It opens to the Black Sea with the Bosphorus and the...
