in this paper the telemac-3d model has been hired to simulate and study the high waves’ interaction with coastal structures. therefore a special arrangement of telemac-3d has been prepared in this study to simulate wave generation, coastal processes, wave set-up and overtopping over coastal structures. experimental data has been used to verify this arrangement of the model. thereafter, the mode...

the problem of propagation of plane wave including body and surface waves propagating in a transversely isotropic half-space with a depth-wise axis of material symmetry is investigated in details. using the advantage of representation of displacement fields in terms of two complete scalar potential functions, the coupled equations of motion are uncoupled and reduced to two independent equations...

in this paper, the coupled dispersive (2+1)-dimensional long wave equation is studied. the traveling wave hypothesis yields complexiton solutions. subsequently, the wave equation is studied with power law nonlinearity where the ansatz method is applied to yield solitary wave solutions. the constraint conditions for the existence of solitons naturally fall out of the derivation of the soliton so...

time-of-flight diffraction method (tofd) is an amplitude-independent sizing method which is based on the measurement of time-of-flight of defect tip diffracted waves. although tofd can measure through-wall length of defect accurately, this method is not capable of measuring horizontal defect size. in this paper, a new tofd method for evaluating horizontal planar defects is presented. the finite...

this paper describes a simple, physically-based conceptual model utilizing watershed drainage characteristics for rainfall-runoff simulation. this conceptual physiographic model is essentially based on the work of najafi (2003), which has led to a model compris-ing the main tributary subwatersheds and a single main channel subwatershed. the ki-nematic wave (kw) theory is used to describe flow o...
