Author:Mukaro, R; Govender, K; Gledhill, Irvy MA; Kokwe, NLDate:Jan 2010In this paper we report on the laboratory investigations of breaking water waves. Measurements of the water levels and instantaneous fluid velocities were conducted in water waves breaking on a sloping beach within a glass flume. Instantaneous ...Read more
Author:Govender, K; Alport, MJ; Mocke, G; Michallet, HDate:2002The cost-effective measurement of the velocity flow fields in breaking water waves, using particle and correlation image velocimetry, is described. The fluid velocities are estimated by tracking the motion of neutrally buoyant particles and ...Read more
