Functions Used
sqrt - A square root function is a function that takes a non-negative number as an input and returns the square root of the given input number., sqrt(Number)
Variables Used
Standing Wave Height - (Measured in Meter) - Standing Wave Height result when two equal waves are going in opposite direction and in this case you get the usual up/down motion of the water surface but the waves don't progress [length].
Maximum Horizontal Velocity at a Node - (Measured in Meter per Second) - Maximum Horizontal Velocity at a Node [length/time] of a motion problem deals with motion in the x direction; that is, side to side, not up and down.
Water Depth - (Measured in Meter) - Water Depth of the considered catchment. Water depth means the depth as measured from the water level to the bottom of the considered water body.

What are Closed Basins?

Enclosed basins can experience oscillations due to a variety of causes. Lake oscillations are usually the result of a sudden change, or a series of intermittent-periodic changes, in atmospheric pressure or wind velocity. Oscillations in canals can be initiated by suddenly adding or subtracting large quantities of water. Harbor oscillations are usually initiated by forcing through the entrance; hence, they deviate from a true closed basin. Local seismic activity can also create oscillations in an enclosed basin.

What are Open Basins?

Open Basins are Exorheic, or open lakes drain into a river, or other body of water that ultimately drains into the ocean.
