Deepwater Wave Height given Average of Highest One Third of Runups Solution

STEP 0: Pre-Calculation Summary

Formula Used

Deepwater Wave Height = Average of the Highest 1/3 of the Runups/(1.38*Deepwater Surf Similarity Parameter^0.7)
H_d = R_1/3/(1.38*ε₀^0.7)
This formula uses 3 Variables

Variables Used

Deepwater Wave Height - (Measured in Meter) - Deepwater Wave Height refers to the measurement of the vertical distance between the trough and the crest of a wave in deep water.
Average of the Highest 1/3 of the Runups - (Measured in Meter) - Average of the Highest 1/3 of the Runups is the average of maximum onshore elevation reached by waves, relative to the shoreline position in the absence of waves.
Deepwater Surf Similarity Parameter - Deepwater Surf Similarity Parameter compares the wave surface slope to the bed slope in the surf zone and represents important features of the hydrodynamics of the surf zone.

STEP 1: Convert Input(s) to Base Unit

Average of the Highest 1/3 of the Runups: 47 Meter --> 47 Meter No Conversion Required
Deepwater Surf Similarity Parameter: 12 --> No Conversion Required

STEP 2: Evaluate Formula

Substituting Input Values in Formula

H_d = R_1/3/(1.38*ε₀^0.7) --> 47/(1.38*12^0.7)

Evaluating ... ...

H_d = 5.98124923123129

STEP 3: Convert Result to Output's Unit

5.98124923123129 Meter --> No Conversion Required

FINAL ANSWER

5.98124923123129 ≈ 5.981249 Meter <-- Deepwater Wave Height

What is Wave Runup?

Wave runup is the maximum vertical extent of wave uprush on a beach or structure above the still water level (SWL). It is the sum of wave set-up and swash uprush (see Swash zone dynamics) and must be added to the water level reached as a result of tides and wind set-up.
