The kinematics of surface gravity waves produced in water 2.5 feet deep in a basin 90 feet square by a sudden, localized disturbance was studied through measurements of height and period. The waves were generated by the quick withdrawal or immersion, or combinations of these actions, of a 14-foot-diameter half-paraboloid plunger located near the mid-point of one wall of the basin. Smaller plungers of diverse shapes were also used. Measurements were made both in the constant-depth portion of the basin and over a beach with a uniform slope of 1:13.6, which was directly opposite the plunger. At the shoreline about 80 feet from the plunger, waves produced by a sudden withdrawal, for example, were 3 inches high, with a maximum period of 3 seconds. The waves compare adequately with those predicted by the theory of Kranzer and Keller, although they were 40% smaller and 20% shorter. By extrapolation, it was found that waves were produced which adequately simulated those from the actual underwater detonation of a high-energy explosive (5 tons TNT) and a nuclear device (20 kt equivalent). It is concluded that with proper scaling the plunger can be used to simulate waves from such causes. (Author).

This is the first book on explosion-generated water waves. It presents the theoretical foundations and experimental results of the generation and propagation of impulsively generated waves resulting from underwater explosions. Many of the theories and concepts presented herein are applicable to other types of water waves, in particular, tsunamis and waves generated by the fall of a meteorite. Linear and nonlinear theories, as well as experimental calibrations, are presented for cases of deep and shallow water explosions. Propagation of transient waves on dissipative, nonuniform bathymetries together with laboratory simulations are analyzed and discussed.

Advances in Hydroscience, Volume 8, provides an overview of the state of knowledge in hydroscience. The book contains six chapters and opens with a study on seiches—a phenomenon that frequently occurs in large enclosed bodies of water and that can result in serious destruction of shore structures and bring sudden death to innocent swimmers. This phenomenon bears certain resemblances to the tsunamis and storm surges over the open sea. Subsequent chapters deal with the basic principles underlying the techniques in isotope hydrology; statistical models for ocean waves and wave forces; fluvial sediment transport; impulsive waves; and channel networks. This contribution will prove particularly useful to hydrologists, since most work in this field has been done by physicists or other non-hydrologists.
