Laboratory measurements of wave height variations and currents along a steep-sided channel /

A small-scale physical model test was conducted in a three-dimensional shallow water wave basin to document wave height variation, velocity and current along a steep-sided channel. The purpose of the test was to provide a benchmark data set for numerical model predictions of wave transformation. A...
