      Nature and magnitude of beach changes over short periods have been studied at Calangute and Miramar in relation to tide, ground water level and relevant oceanographic and meteorological factors. Alternating zones of accretion ...
    • Directional wave measurements off Navinal, Gulf of Kachchh, India 

      Vethamony, P.; KrishnaKumar, V.; Suryanarayana, A.; Antony, M.K.; Swamy, G.N. (Brazilian Water Resources Association, Brazil, 1995)
      Results of directional wave measurements carried out off Navinal, Gulf of Kachchh representing pre-monsoon and southwest monsoon wave conditions are presented. Maximum wave height encountered during pre-monsoon and southwest ...
    • Directional wave spectra off southeast coast of Tamil Nadu 

      SanilKumar, V.; Deo, M.C.; Anand, N.M.; Gowthaman, R. (Allied, Chennai (India), 1996)
      Knowledge on directional wave parameter is important for the design of any coastal structure and estimation of nearshore sediment tansport. The desired degree of detail may vary from the information on predominant wave ...
    • Distribution of deep water wave power around the Indian coast based on ship observations 

      Chandramohan, P.; Nayak, B.U.; RamaRaju, V.S. (Tirunelveli: JCSONLINE, 1989)
      The ship reported swell data published in the Indian Daily Weather Reports for the period from 1968 to 1983 are complied for the seas around India which are divided into 10 grids each of 5 degrees latitude and 5 degrees ...
    • Estimating transmitted waves of floating breakwater using support vector regression model 

      Mandal, S.; Hegde, A.V.; Kumar, V.; Patil, S.G. (IIT Bombay, 2009)
      Planning and design of coastal protection works like floating breakwaters requires information about the performance characteristics of the structure in reducing the wave energy. They can be used as a temporary protection ...
    • Interannual and seasonal variations in nearshore wave characteristics off Honnavar, west coast of India 

      Sanjiv, P.C.; SanilKumar, V.; Johnson, G.; Dora, G.U.; Vinayaraj, P. (Current Science Association, 2012)
      Interannual and seasonal variations in nearshore surface wave parameters over a period of three years (March 2008 - March 2011) were examined based on the measured wave data at 9 m water depth off Honnavar, west coast of ...
