Irregular Wave Orbital Velocities at Coastal Structures

Abstract

The purpose of this note is to describe an available PC program for estimating near-bottom water particle velocities which contribute to the problem of scour at and around various coastal structures (including vertical walls, sloping revetments, and rubble-mound structures).
