Ocean Engineering Mechanics is designed to give an introduction to
water waves and wave-structure interactions for fixed and floating
bodies. Linear and nonlinear regular waves are thoroughly
discussed, and the methods of determining the averaged properties
of random waves are presented. With this foundation in wave
mechanics, applications to engineering situations in the coastal
zone are then presented. This introduction to the coastal
engineering aspects of wave mechanics includes an introduction to
shore protection. Covered within are also the basics of
wave-structure interactions for situations involving ridged
structures, compliant structures, and floating bodies in regular
and random seas. The final chapters deal with the various
analytical methods available for the engineering analyses of
wave-induced forces and motions of floating and compliant
structures in regular and random seas. An introduction to the
soil-structure interactions is also included. The book can be used
for both introductory and advanced courses in ocean engineering
mechanics.
