It is mentioned that observed infragravity waves consist of bound waves propagating with short-wave groups, released waves due to reduction of short crest waves and free waves existing in a field. Though it is difficult to distinguish among them, a standard spectrum for infragravity waves is defined by using a relation to a wind wave spectrum. In this study, a comprehensive definition of standard spectrum is newly proposed to estimate infragravity wave heights with the relation between the ratio of wave height and the ursell number of observed wave property, represented by selected data of wave observation in shallow water. Moreover, the release process of bound waves at a harbor entrance is reproduced in numerical simulation using a Boussinesq model for short-wave transformation. These results are verified by comparison to infragravity waves observed at outside/inside of a harbor for a month.

Although there have been a number of studies investigating fundamental characteristics of infragravity waves in coastal zones, a proper method of deciding period ranges that are associated with gravity or infragravity waves remains uncertain. In this study, we proposed an empirical method of separating spectral energies of gravity and infragravity waves by analyzing the wave observation data acquired off Gyeongpo beach on the Korean east coast. The fundamental principle of the suggested method is to represent the separation period discriminating gravity and infragravity waves as a function of the significant wave period, rather than a fixed value that was conventionally applied in previous studies. As a consequence of using the new method, the relationships between heights and periods of gravity and infragravity waves were more clearly identified.

This paper presents the results of wave force tests conducted on three types of offshore support structures considering eight waves and three sea levels to investigate the corresponding wave forces. As a result of this study, it is found that the occurrence of shoaling in shallow water induces a significant increase of the wave force. Most of the test models at the shallow water undergo a nonlinear increase of the wave force with higher wave height increasing. In addition, the larger the diameter of the support structure within the range of this study, the larger the diffraction effect is, and the increase in wave force due to shoaling is suppressed. Under an irregular wave at the shallow water, the wave force to the long-period wave tends to be slightly higher than that of the short period wave since the higher wave height component included in the irregular wave has an influence on the shoaling. In addition, it is found that the influence of shoaling under irregular wave becomes more apparent in the long period.

This paper deals with time-advancing schemes for shallow water equations. We review some of the existing numerical approaches, propose new schemes and investigate their stability. We present numerical results obtained using the time-advancing schemes proposed, with finite element and finite difference approximation in space variables.
