Surf zone dynamics along the south Karnataka Coast between Bhatkal and Ullal, west coast of India
(CSIR-NISCAIR, 1994)
Field study between Bhatkal and Ullal from June 1989 to May 1990 indicated that the beaches along this segment of coastline are essentially stable showing only seasonal fluctuations. Beaches after being subjected to erosional ...
Longshore sediment transport in the surf zone based on different formulae: A case study along the central west coast of India
(Springer, 2017)
Understanding longshore sediment transport (LST) is a prerequisite for designing an effective coastal zone management strategy. The present study estimates the LST along the central west coast of India based on four bulk ...
Wave crest height distribution during the tropical cyclone period
(2020)
The wave crest height plays a vital role in designing both the fixed and floating marine structures. The present study examines the measured wave crest data at 18 m water depth off Visakhapatnam in the northwestern Bay of ...
Uncertainties of the 50-year wave height estimation using generalized extreme value and generalized Pareto distributions in the Indian Shelf seas
(2019)
Information about waves with specific return period in a region is essential for the safe design of marine facilities. In this study, significant wave height for 50-year return period is estimated using generalized extreme ...
Consistency of wave power at a location in the coastal waters of central eastern Arabian Sea
(2019)
Wave energy assessment at a regional scale is required for planning installation of wave energy converters. Based on continuously measured wave data at 14-m water depth in the central eastern Arabian Sea from January 2011 ...
A numerical investigation on the tide-induced residence time and its association with the suspended sediment concentration in Gulf of Khambhat, northern Arabian Sea
(Elsevier Ltd, 2021)
A 2D-numerical model is used to estimate suspended sediment (SS) transport and residence time (RT) of the Gulf of Khambhat (Gulf). Tidal current, as well as bottom topography, play a key role in sediment entrapment inside ...
Circulation in the Gulf of Khambhat - A Lagrangian Perspective
(2020)
The circulation of the Gulf of Khambhat (GoK) is studied from a Lagrangian point of view using a 2D numerical model. The model-predicted tide elevation and current speed are in agreement with the observations. Seasonal ...
Performance of a two-body heaving cylindrical wave energy converter on stepped sea bottom
(Elsevier, 2023)
The present study deals with the surface gravity wave interaction with a heaving dual concentric cylindrical wave energy converter (WEC) buoy system on the stepped sea bottom. The energy captured by linear electric generator ...
Waves in Gulf of Mannar and Palk Bay around Dhanushkodi, Tamil Nadu, India
(Current Science Association, 2013)
Surface wave characteristics around Dhanushkodi are studied based on the measured data in the Gulf of Mannar and in the Palk Bay. Wave spectra are mainly double-peaked in the Gulf of Mannar and single-peaked in the Palk ...
Evaluating the estuarine tidal discharge through water stage component analysis and in-situ measurement - Case study Mandovi-Zuari estuary of Goa, India
(Elsevier, 2023)
Determining tidal reach and long-term monitoring of tidal discharge are vital in an estuarine system due to their potential use in water resource management and inland navigation. The upstream river discharge contributes ...
