dc.description | Abstract: Model studies were performed to investigate the forces of breaking waves on piles located on a sloping beach. A suitable dynamometer was developed and measurements were made for a number of different wave conditions on a single beach slope (of 1:10) and for two different pile diameters. The resulting maximum forces are presented in dimensionless form for convenience. The data appear insufficient to permit extrapolation of these data to larger size piles and waves, as might occur in the ocean. These studies were performed in the 1 foot wide by 60 feet long wave channel in the Mechanics Building of the University of California. | - |
