TL;DR

The list was originally published by the International Association for Hydraulic Research (IAHR) and the Permanent International Association of Navigation Congresses (PIANC). The authors developed a comprehensive list of wave parameters and functions to promote uniformity, clarify terminology, and enhance accessibility for laboratory and field programs and ASCE members. The list groups wave parameters for easier reference, providing a comprehensive resource designed to accommodate modern laboratory and field programs and improve accessibility for ASCE members, readers, and contributors.

Abstract

A comprehensive list of wave parameters and wave‐related functions is developed to accommodate modern laboratory and field programs and to help investigators clarify symbols, nomenclature, and definitions used. The list is suggested as a reference with the aim of promoting uniformity and reducing the confusion of present usage. Parameters in the list are grouped for easier reference. The list was originally published by the International Association for Hydraulic Research (IAHR) and Permanent International Association of Navigation Congresses (PIANC). It is provided here to increase its accessibility and use by ASCE members, readers, and contributors.
