| Abstract | At first,the flow regimes for wave-current combined motion are developed from the previous
experimental data in the simple and explicit expressions. Then, approximate formula of the
wave-current friction coefficient for smooth turbulent flow is derived in an explicit form. After that,
the explicit expressions of friction coefficient and phase difference spanning all flow regimes are
also calculated in simple forms. Finally, simple expression of time variation of bottom shear stress
is derived, based upon the theoretical result by Tanaka and Shuto (1981). Since all the formulas are
given in explicit forms, it is convenient to reduce the CPU time. Errors of the approximate formula
of friction coefficient for smooth turbulent flow are less than 3% in the range of practical importance. |
