Research on Wave Characteristics of Large-scale Lakes Based on the Mild-slope Model

Year: 2024

Type: book-chapter

Abstract: Lakes, as invaluable natural resources, serve multifaceted roles encompassing flood prevention, water supply, and ecological balance.However,Wind-induced waves within lake regions exert a pronounced influence on shoreline development and the proliferation of aquatic vegetation.Wind-induced waves seriously affects the safety of levee projects and the benefit of lakes.This study delves into wind-wave dynamics in lakes using the mathematical modelthe mild-slope equation.It aims to unveil the characteristics and distribution of wind and wave patterns across manifold embankment sections under diverse water levels and wind directions.These findings are instrumental in refining shoreline designs, selecting appropriate aquatic flora, and providing robust data support for constructing flood control systems and managing the ecological environment along lake perimeters.
