Abstract
Irregular wave height attenuation is examined through numerical simulation and laboratory experiments. A series of laboratory wave flume experiments were carried out with a focus on the dissipative role of the fluid mud where commercial kaolinite was used as the mud bed. Applying different frequency spectra, the transformation of wave spectra along the mud layer were measured. The irregular waves are simulated by spectral calculation method assuming viscous behavior for fluid mud layer. The comparisons between the measured data and numerical results reveal the capability of wave spectra modeling to simulate irregular wave transformation along the wave flume.
