What is Wave Reflection on Structures?
If there is a change in water depth as a wave propagates forward, a portion of the wave’s energy will be reflected. When a wave hits a vertical, impermeable, rigid surface-piercing wall, essentially all of the wave energy will reflect from the wall. On the other hand, when a wave propagates over a small bottom slope, only a very small portion of the energy will be reflected. The degree of wave reflection is defined by the reflection coefficient Cr = Hr/Hi where Hr and Hi are the reflected and incident wave heights, respectively.
How to Calculate Maximum Oscillation Period corresponding to Fundamental Mode?
Maximum Oscillation Period corresponding to Fundamental Mode calculator uses Maximum Oscillation Period = 2*Length of Basin along Axis/sqrt([g]*Water Depth) to calculate the Maximum Oscillation Period, The Maximum Oscillation Period corresponding to Fundamental Mode formula is defined for Closed Basin as a parameter influencing maximum oscillation period T1 corresponding to fundamental mode is given by setting n = 1. Maximum Oscillation Period is denoted by T1 symbol.
How to calculate Maximum Oscillation Period corresponding to Fundamental Mode using this online calculator? To use this online calculator for Maximum Oscillation Period corresponding to Fundamental Mode, enter Length of Basin along Axis (Lba) & Water Depth (D) and hit the calculate button. Here is how the Maximum Oscillation Period corresponding to Fundamental Mode calculation can be explained with given input values -> 0.000226 = 2*4.41/sqrt([g]*12).
