BOTTOM FRICTION OF WAVE-CURRENT FLOW ON A NATURAL BEACH

  • Published : 1991.07.01

Abstract

The bottom friction model of combined wave-current flow developed by Bijker, Yoo and O'Conner (hereafter it is called BYO model) is fully based on the Prandtl's mixing length theory. Although the Prandtl's theory is dependant on some rationalism, it is widely recognized that the theory is generally acceptable for the description of any turbulent flow.(omitted)
