Role of Vegetation on Beach Run-up due to Regular and Cnoidal Waves. Journal of Coastal Research, 28(1A), 123-130. | Series/Report no.: | Journal of coastal research | Abstract: | The effectiveness of measures in protecting the coast against natural hazards depends on the extent of run-up by ocean waves, which is an essential parameter in their planning and design. Although, several formulae have been derived in the past for estimation of run-up in laboratory studies for a variety of wave front structures, certain uncertainties still remain pertaining to flat slopes and long waves. To understand the performance characteristics of vegetation in attenuating run-up, a comprehensive experimental investigation was taken up. The studies were carried out with regular and cnoidal waves propagating over a plane slope of 1 30 in the presence and absence of vegetation of different characteristics. The results on the variation of dimensionless run-up as a function of wave and vegetal parameters are presented and discussed in this paper. | URI: | https://hdl.handle.net/10356/83680 http://hdl.handle.net/10220/11657 |
