Wave ‘set-down’ and set-Up
Abstract
‘Set-down’ and set-up, the negative and positive changes in mean water level due to the presence of a train of surface waves, was measured in a wave channel. Well outside the break point the experimental results are in good agreement with the theoretical relationship determined by Longuet-Higgins and Stewart. Near the break point, where the wave height is greater than predicted by first-order wave theory, the measured ‘set-down’ was consistently less than theory would predict from the deep water wave height. Inside the break point the bore height was found to be a linear function of the mean water depth. In this region, the gradient of the set-up, , was related to the beach slope tan β and the mean ratio of wave height to water depth by the equation .

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
