In this present study, weighted total acceleration for Kinematic Free Surface Boundary Condition (KFSBC) and in momentum Euler equation was formulated. Furthermore, by using both aforementioned equations, the nonlinear water wave dispersion equation was then formulated. The wavelength obtained from dispersion equation is determined by weighting coefficient. The weighting coefficient value was determined by using the maximum wave height and critical wave steepness criteria which have been obtained from the previous studies.

In the cited paper (2) a formula is given for the lth Fourier component of the velocity potential of an N-bladed propeller [equations (9) and (10) of the paper], (2). The total velocity potential is then, of course, given by the sum of all the components.

This article studies water wave interaction with a submerged quarter-circular breakwater based on potential theory and multipole expansion method. The obliquely and normally incident waves are independently considered. The series solution of velocity potential in the external fluid domain is expressed through the multipole expansions, while the series solution of velocity potential in the quarter-circular internal fluid domain is obtained through the separation of variables. Then, the unknown coefficients in the series solutions are determined by matching the boundary conditions between external and internal fluid domains. The calculation methods for the reflection and transmission coefficients of the submerged quarter-circular breakwater as well as the horizontal and vertical wave forces on the breakwater are presented. The wave forces acting on the submerged breakwater with a seaside quarter-circular-arc and that with a leeside quarter-circular-arc are compared. The hydrodynamic quantities of the submerged quarter-circular breakwater are also compared with those of the submerged semi-circular breakwater. In addition, the effects of breakwater radius, incident frequency, and incident angle on the hydrodynamic quantities of the quarter-circular breakwater are clarified. Valuable results for practical engineering application are drawn.

Abstract. We are interested in the modelling of wave-current interactions around surf zones at beaches. Any model that aims to predict the onset of wave breaking at the breaker line needs to capture both the nonlinearity of the wave and its dispersion. We have therefore formulated the Hamiltonian dynamics of a new water wave model, incorporating both the shallow water and pure potential flow water wave models as limiting systems. It is based on a Hamiltonian reformulation of the variational principle derived by Cotter and Bokhove (2010) by using more convenient variables. Our new model has a three-dimensional velocity field consisting of the full three-dimensional potential velocity field plus extra horizontal velocity components. This implies that only the vertical vorticity component is nonzero. Variational Boussinesq models and Green–Naghdi equations, and extensions thereof, follow directly from the new Hamiltonian formulation after using simplifications of the vertical flow profile. Since the full water wave dispersion is retained in the new model, waves can break. We therefore explore a variational approach to derive jump conditions for the new model and its Boussinesq simplifications.
