What are the Main Theories for Steady Waves?

There are two main theories for steady waves – Stokes theory, most suitable for waves which are not very long relative to the water depth; and Cnoidal theory, suitable for the other limit where the waves are much longer than the depth. In addition there is one important numerical method – the Fourier approximation method which solves the problem accurately, and is now widely used in ocean and coastal engineering.

How to Calculate Second Type of Mean Fluid Speed?

Second Type of Mean Fluid Speed calculator uses Mean Horizontal Fluid Velocity = Fluid Stream Velocity-(Rate of Volume Flow/Coastal Mean Depth) to calculate the Mean Horizontal Fluid Velocity, The Second Type of Mean Fluid Speed is defined as the depth-integrated mean speed of the fluid under the waves in the frame in which motion is steady. If Q is the volume flow rate per unit span underneath the waves in the frame, the depth-averaged mean fluid velocity is −Q/d, where d is the mean depth. Mean Horizontal Fluid Velocity is denoted by U_h symbol.
