ABSTRACT The Coastal Inlets Research Program (CIRP) of the U.S. Army Engineer Research and Development Center (ERDC) Coastal and Hydraulics Laboratory (CHL) has developed a nearshore spectral wave transformation numerical model to address needs of the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers (USACE) navigation projects.

The right-hand side terms respectively are: S is the source (e.g., in wind input), S is the sink (e.g., bottom friction, wave breaking, dp whitecapping, etc.), and S is the nonlinear wave-wave nl interaction. The first term on the right side of Equation 1 is the wave diffraction term formulated from a parabolic approximation wave theory (Mase, 2001). In applications, the diffraction intensity parameter ( 0) needs to be calibrated and optimized for featured structures. The model omits the diffraction effect for = 0 and calculates the diffraction for > 0. In practice, the value of may range from 0 (no diffraction) to 4 (strong diffraction) for calculating diffraction effects. A constant value of = 2.5 has been used by Mase et al. (2001, 2005a, 2005b) to simulate wave diffraction for narrow and wide gap breakwater Figure 1. CMS-Wave grid and data-collection stations at Grays Harbor, applications. Lin et al. (2008) and Demirbilek et al. (2009) WA. USA. demonstrate that value of = 4 is appropriate for semi-inifinite long breakwaters and also in narrow gaps (inlets) with openings equal or less than one wavelength. For wider gaps with the opening greater than one wavelength, = 3 is recommended. The exact value of in an application is dependent on the structure’s geometry, local bathymetry and incident wave conditions, and may need to be fine-tuned with data. The default value of = 4 is used in the model, corresponding to strong diffraction. Implementation of wave diffraction is approximate, and phase-resolving wave models (Holthuijsen et al., 2004) may be used to verify estimate of waves near structures, inlets and harbors. Figures 1 and 2 show an example of the CMS-Wave computational domain and calculated wave results at four different locations (HMB1 to HMB4), respectively, at Half- Moon Bay in Grays Harbor entrance, Washington, USA. Osborne and Davies (2004) described the field data collection in Grays Harbor. Numerical simulation is conducted for December 10 through 31, 2003. The input wind and wave data were obtained from the National Data Buoy Center (NDBC - http://www.ndbc.noaa.gov) Station 46029 and Coastal Data Information Program (http://cdip.ucsd.edu) Buoy 036 (NDBC 46211), respectively. CMS-Wave was run in the coupled mode with a CMS-Flow model (Buttolph et al., 2006; http://cirp.usace.army.mil/products) that provided calculated water level and current input fields. The effect of current on waves (H shown in Figure 2 is the significant height defined as s the mean of the highest 1/3 wave height ) is pronounced at gauges HMB1 and HMB2 located closer to the navigation channel in relatively deep water. Comparison of simulation results with the field data shows that shallow water effects on Figure 2.

The swash 1 kh n 2 sinh2kh oscillation of waves on the beach face is a random process. In engineering applications, the 2-percent runup defined as exceedance of the vertical level is commonly used and denoted as R (or R2). Komar (1998) gives an estimate of R on 2% 2% beaches, seawalls and jetties as R 2|η| (7) 2% The R is calculated using Equation 7 at the land-water 2% interface and averaged with the local depth to determine if water can flood the dry cells. If the wave run-up level is higher than elevation of adjacent dry land cells, these cells are flooded to simulate the overtopping and overwash at these cells. Wave run-up calculation in CMS-Wave is verified with data collected from two laboratory studies of random wave up-rush on plane smooth slopes (Ahrens and Titus, 1981; Mase and Figure 3. Measured and calculated 2% exceedence wave runup. Iwagaki, 1984). There are together a total of 395 run-up cases from these two studies covering a broad range of plane slope (1:1 to 1:30) and incident spectrum. Ahrens and Titus (1981) WAVE TRANSMISSION AND OVERTOPPING OF characterized the incident wave by the spectral peak frequency STRUCTURES and a wave group parameter (Goda, 1970) defined as Wave transmission over low-crested or submerged impermeable structures is exhibited by fall of the overtopping 2E2()d Q , water mass.

Measured and calculated transmission coefficients for a vertical breakwater. The exact solution of wave-wave interaction requires solving computationally expensive six-dimensional integral (Resio and Tracy, 1982). The wave-wave interactions in CMS-Wave are Journal of Coastal Research, Special Issue No. 59, 2011 Recent Capabilities of CMS-Wave 11 _________________________________________________________________________________________________ calculated using a modified method of Jenkins and Phillips (2001). They proposed a simple formula to represent wave-wave interactions as a second-order diffusion operator of the isotropic form that conserves the wave action. CMS-Wave implements this formula directly in the wave-action balance equation such that no additional integration is required to calculate wave-wave interactions. By keep only the first and second-order terms in the Jenkins-Phillips formulation, wave-wave interactions in finite water depth can be expressed as F 2F S a b (14) nl 2 where 1 is a function of kh, a , a [1(2n1)2cosh2kh]1 b 2n2 n and n4 3 (15) Fk35 ( m)4E (2)2g The variation of a and b as functions of kh is shown in Figure 5. Nonlinear wave-wave interaction coefficients a and bσ as Figure 5, indicating that wave-wave interactions are more functions of kh. significant in the intermediate water depths and diminish in the shallow water. This is because wave-wave interactions initially take place in the deepwater, continue to evolve in the intermediate depth, and gradually diminish in shallow water. The effect of interactions on wave evolution is greater over long fetches in a large ocean domain and less in a local coastal region. Figure 6 shows the comparison of directionally integrated S from Equation 14 and exact computations in the nl examples of Hasselmann et al. (1985). These calculations are for the JONSWAP spectra with =2 and =5. Figure 7 shows the calculated nonlinear wave energy transfer rate S in the nl frequency and direction domain for a JONSWAP spectrum with =5. These calculated results are consistent with the observed and theoretical results that the nonlinear wave-wave interactions cause wave energy to transfer from high to low frequencies (downshifting).

More importantly, we note that the proposed new wave-wave interaction result because more wave energy from formulation that extends the Jenkins-Phillips original wind input can transfer from high to low frequencies.
