"Wave Action on Structures", Walter H. Munk, American Institute of Mining 

 and Metallurgical Engineers, Technical Publication No. 2322, March 194-8. 



Wave forces on structures are discussed in relation to the Airy wave 

 theory.. The principal value of the paper lies in the method presented 

 for computation of forces and moments against vertical piles,. 



"Momentum and Energy Integrals for Gravity Waves of Finite Height", Victor 

 P„ Starr, University of Chicago, Journal of Marine Research, v. 6, no , 3 S 

 p. 175, 1947. 



Certain simple integral properties of gravity wave motion are derived 

 directly from the differential equations governing the dynamic system 

 considered „ The treatment is restricted to plane waves in an 

 irrotational medium which move without change of form. No assumption 

 is made concerning the amplitude so that the results are applicable 

 to waves of finite height. Both periodic and solitary waves are con- 

 sidered.
