EXPERIMENTAL INVESTIGATION OF MECHANISM OF SEABEDWAVE-INDUCED SAND RIPPLE FORMATION

When waves propagate in shallow coastal areas, due to oscillatory motion andconsequentmovement of the surface particles, ripples are formed on the seabed. Bed roughness, which is animportant factor in sediment transport process, is affected by formation ofripples on the bed.
