Functions
Radiation Stress Component
Radiation Stress Component is the momentum transferred through the water body per unit of time (the flux of momentum) by wave orbital motion.
Symbol: Sxy
Measurement: NAUnit: Unitless
Note: Value should be greater than 0.
Ratio of Wave Group Speed and Phase Speed
Ratio of Wave Group Speed and Phase Speed is ratio of the group speed (cg) the speed with which the energy of the waves moves, while the phase speed (c) the velocity of a wave crest.
Symbol: n
Measurement: NAUnit: Unitless
Note: Value should be greater than 0.
Mass Density
Mass Density is a physical quantity that represents the mass of a substance per unit volume.
Symbol: ρ
Measurement: Mass ConcentrationUnit: kg/m³
Note: Value should be greater than 0.
Wave Height
Wave Height of a surface wave is the difference between the elevations of a crest and a neighbouring trough.
Symbol: H
Measurement: LengthUnit: m
Note: Value should be greater than 0.
Wave Crest Angle
Wave Crest Angle is the angle at which the crest of a wave approaches or intersects with another medium, such as the shoreline or another wave.
Symbol: α
Measurement: AngleUnit: °
Note: Value should be greater than 0.
Gravitational acceleration on Earth
Gravitational acceleration on Earth means that the velocity of an object in free fall will increase by 9.8 m/s2 every second.

How to Evaluate Radiation Stress Component?

Radiation Stress Component evaluator uses Radiation Stress Component = (Ratio of Wave Group Speed and Phase Speed/8)*Mass Density*[g]*(Wave Height^2)*cos(Wave Crest Angle)*sin(Wave Crest Angle) to evaluate the Radiation Stress Component, The Radiation Stress Component formula is defined as the transport of x-momentum in the y-direction which acts as a shear stress on the plane, directed in the x-direction, and works on the plane normal to the y-direction. Radiation Stress Component is denoted by Sxy symbol.

How to evaluate Radiation Stress Component using this online evaluator? To use this online evaluator for Radiation Stress Component, enter Ratio of Wave Group Speed and Phase Speed (n), Mass Density (ρ), Wave Height (H) & Wave Crest Angle (α) and hit the calculate button.
