Local Fluid Particle Acceleration in Y Direction
Local Fluid Particle Acceleration in Y Direction is the rate of change of velocity of fluid particles along the vertical axis within a specific region of a body of water, such as the ocean.
Symbol: ay
Measurement: AccelerationUnit: m/s²
Note: Value can be positive or negative.
Height of the Wave
Height of the Wave is the difference between the elevations of a crest and a neighboring trough.
Symbol: Hw
Measurement: LengthUnit: m
Note: Value can be positive or negative.
Wavelength of Wave
Wavelength of Wave refers to the distance between consecutive corresponding points of the same phase on the wave, such as two adjacent crests, troughs, or zero crossings.
Symbol: λ
Measurement: LengthUnit: m
Note: Value can be positive or negative.
Distance above the Bottom
Distance above the Bottom refers to the vertical measurement from the lowest point of a given surface (such as the bottom of waterbody) to a specified point above it.
Symbol: DZ+d
Measurement: LengthUnit: m
Note: Value can be positive or negative.
Water Depth for Fluid Velocity
Water Depth for Fluid Velocity is the depth as measured from the water level to the bottom of the considered water body.
Symbol: d
Measurement: LengthUnit: m
Note: Value should be greater than 0.
Phase Angle
Phase Angle refers to the time lag between the maximum amplitude of a forcing function, such as waves or currents, and the response of the system, such as water level or sediment transport.
Symbol: θ
Measurement: AngleUnit: °
Note: Value can be positive or negative.
Gravitational acceleration on Earth
Gravitational acceleration on Earth means that the velocity of an object in free fall will increase by 9.8 m/s2 every second.
Symbol: [g]
Value: 9.80665 m/s²
Archimedes' constant
Archimedes' constant is a mathematical constant that represents the ratio of the circumference of a circle to its diameter.
