    • An overview of the numerical and neural network accosts of ocean wave prediction 

      Mandal, S.; Prabaharan, N. (Lanka Hydraulic Institute, Sri Lanka, 2003)
      This paper presents an overview of the development of the numerical wave prediction models and recently used neural networks for wave hindcasting and forecasting. The numerical wave models express the physical concepts of ...
    • Estimation of wave directional spreading 

      Deo, M.C.; Gondane, D.S.; SanilKumar, V. (American Society of Civil Engineers, Virginia, USA, 2001)
      One of the useful measures of waves directional spreading at a given location is the directional spreading parameter. This paper presents a new approach to arrive at its characteristic value using the computational technique ...
    • Estimation of wind speed and wave height during cyclones 

      SanilKumar, V.; Mandal, S.; AshokKumar, K. (Elsevier, 2003)
      Wave and wind characteristics based on the cyclones, in the vicinity of the Nagapattinam coastline (east coast of India) were estimated. In all, 11 cyclones have crossed near the study region during 1960-1996. For the four ...
    • Hindcasting cyclonic waves using neural networks 

      Mandal, S.; Rao, S.; Chakravarty, N.V. (KREC, Surathkal, 2002)
      Cyclone generated waves play a significant role in the design of coastal and offshore structures. Instead of conventional numerical models, neural network approach is used in the present study to estimate the wave parameters ...
    • Some studies on wave refraction in relation to beach erosion along the Kerala coast 

      Das, P.K.; Hariharan, V.; Varadachari, V.V.R. (Indian Academy of Sciences, Bangalore, 1966)
      Using the British admirality bathymetric charts off the west coast of India and employing the graphical method of constructing wave refraction diagrams, an attempt is made to study behaviour of the short-period waves (4, ...
