    • Wave Reflection and Transmission in Channels of Gradually Varying Depth 

      Ippen, A. T.; Alam, A. M. Z.; Bourodimos, E. L. (Cambridge, Mass. : Massachusetts Institute of Technology, Hydrodynamics Laboratory, Department of Civil Engineering, 1964-07)
      This report presents the results of a study on the reflection and transmission of water waves in a rectangular channel with transitions of linearly varying depths. Two channel sections of uniform depths are joined by ...

    • Dispersion of Pollutants in Estuary Type Flows 

      Holley, Jr., Edward R.; Harleman, Donald R. F. (Cambridge, Mass. : Hydrodynamics Laboratory, Dept. of Civil Engineering, Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 1965-01)
      Much of the engineering literature has failed to show an understanding of the mechanism of longitudinal dispersion which arises in the one dimensional representation of pollution transport in turbulent shear flows. In the ...

    • Mathematical Models of the Massachusetts Bay 

      Connor, Jerome J.; Wang, John D.; Briggs, Douglas A.; Madsen, Ole S.; Christodoulou, Georgios C.; e.a. (Cambridge, Mass. : Ralph M. Parsons Laboratory for Water Resources and Hydrodynamics, Dept. of Civil Engineering, School of Engineering, Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 1973-10)
      Part 1. The vertically integrated conservation of mass and momentum equations for shallow water bodies are reviewed. The equations used in this study are based on only two assumptions: hydrostatic pressure and squares of ...
