STEP 0: Pre-Calculation Summary

Formula Used

Wavelength = Wave Height/0.142
λ = H/0.142
This formula uses 2 Variables

Variables Used

Wavelength - (Measured in Meter) - Wavelength can be defined as the distance between two successive crests or troughs of a wave.
Wave Height - (Measured in Meter) - Wave Height of a surface wave is the difference between the elevations of a crest and a neighboring trough.

STEP 1: Convert Input(s) to Base Unit

Wave Height: 3 Meter --> 3 Meter No Conversion Required

STEP 2: Evaluate Formula

Substituting Input Values in Formula

λ = H/0.142 --> 3/0.142

Evaluating ... ...

Major horizontal semi-axis given wavelength, wave height and water depth

Go Horizontal Semi-axis of Water Particle = (Wave Height/2)*(cosh(2*pi*(Distance above the Bottom)/Wavelength))/sinh(2*pi*Water Depth/Wavelength)

Minor vertical semi-axis given wavelength, wave height and water depth

Go Vertical Semi-Axis = (Wave Height/2)*(sinh(2*pi*(Distance above the Bottom)/Wavelength))/sinh(2*pi*Water Depth/Wavelength)

Eckart's Equation for Wavelength

Go Wavelength = (([g]*Wave Period^2/2*pi)*sqrt(tanh(4*pi^2*Water Depth)/Wave Period^2*[g]))

Water Depth for maximum wave steepness of waves travelling

Go Water Depth = Wavelength*atanh(Wave Steepness/0.142)/(2*pi)

Wavelength for maximum wave steepness

Go Wavelength = 2*pi*Water Depth/atanh(Wave Steepness/0.142)

Maximum Wave Steepness for Waves Travelling

Go Wave Steepness = 0.142*tanh(2*pi*Water Depth/Wavelength)

Wave Amplitude given Elevation of Water Surface Relative to SWL

Go Wave Amplitude = Elevation of Water Surface/cos(Theta)

What causes Wave?

Waves are most commonly caused by wind. Wind-driven waves, or surface waves, are created by the friction between wind and surface water. As wind blows across the surface of the ocean or a lake, the continual disturbance creates a wave crest. ... The gravitational pull of the sun and moon on the earth also causes waves.
