商品簡介
Written for advanced students, researchers, and engineers in coastal and ocean engineering, this book reviews key concepts of coastal engineering, especially wave-induced physical problems, and presents the author's results from 30 years of research on coastal and river basin sediment transport, beach erosion, and natural disasters in the coastal environment. Case studies are provided from many countries around the world. Some specific topics covered include fluid mechanics, linear wave theory, surfzone dynamics, wave induced currents, and wave forces on structures. Shibayama teaches civil engineering at Yokohama National University, Japan. Annotation c2010 Book News, Inc., Portland, OR (booknews.com)
