Laboratory Measurements of the Kinematics and Dynamics of Deep-Water Breaking Waves

abstractcts - 0215638 w。肯德尔·梅尔维尔，加州大学圣地亚哥分校提议对破碎波的动力学进行实验研究。实验将在斯克里普斯海洋研究所的波浪通道中进行，以实现以下目标。(1)破碎波作用下湍流动能（TKE）预算的估算。(2)作为雷诺数和邦德数函数的断裂总耗散的尺度检验。(3)利用高速视频技术研究破碎和冲击的初始阶段。本研究的广泛影响包括将研究结果应用于海岸与海洋工程、造船、海气相互作用的实践以及博士研究生的培养。PI将继续支持K-12教育，组织学生参观斯克里普斯海洋学研究所。

AbstractCTS-0215638W. Kendall Melville, University of California San DiegoIt is proposed to carry out experimental investigation of the dynamics of breaking waves.Experiments will be carried out in wave channels at Scripps Institution of Oceanography to achieve the following objectives. (1) Evaluation of the turbulent kinetic energy (TKE) budget under breaking waves. (2) Examination of the scaling of the total dissipation due to breaking as a function of Reynolds and Bond numbers. And (3) study of the initial stages of breaking and impact using high-speed video technique. The broader impacts of the proposed research include applications of the results to the practice of coastal and ocean engineering, naval architecture, and air-sea interactions, and training of Ph.D. student. The PI will continue to support K-12 education by hosting class visits to Scripps Institution of Oceanography.
