Airy and Other Analytical Waves for Beginners

本書的目的是成為一本實用的參考書，提供基本理論的簡單描述以及許多已解決的練習題。書中闡明了理解 Airy 波及其他解析波（以及它們在海岸工程中的應用）所需的基本概念。此外，在某些情況下，還提供了適當的數學工具，因為有些科學課程並不要求具備最低的數學或物理背景。儘管未深入探討理論發展，但經驗表明，學生能夠獲得追求任何後續進修課程所需的基本知識。

Juan J. Munoz-Perez has worked in private companies both in consulting and public works (CORSAN), as well as in the ports of Barcelona and Cadiz. As a civil servant, he has been Chief Engineer of the Projects and Works Service in the Atlantic Coastal Department (1989-2004) and Head of it (2009-2012), planning, supervising and directing about 400 maritime works. He is a Professor at the University of Cadiz, teaching subjects of Coastal Engineering, Submarine Emissaries, Hydraulic Works, Physical Modeling in Ports and Litoral Dynamics since 1991. He is also the author of numerous contributions in Congresses and articles in prestigious journals as a result of the projects he has managed through the Coastal Engineering research group (RNM-912) that he runs.

Antonio Contreras de Villar has worked in a private company in the execution of public works (Dragados). He is currently a PhD professor in the Department of Industrial Engineering and Civil Engineering of the University of Cádiz, teaching subjects on Port and Coastal Engineering, Port-Coastal Interaction, Dynamics Litoral, as well as Physical Modeling in Ports since 2001. He belongs to the Coastal Engineering research group (RNM-912). He is the author of numerous articles in prestigious magazines, and you can consult his works in his public profile (scholar.google.es/citations?user=zeHyqTsAAAAJ&hl=es&oi=ao).

Pilar Díaz-Carrasco is currently Assistant Professor at University of Seville - Department of Construction Engineering and Engineering Projects. PhD in Civil Engineering funded by a predoctoral contract support for the University Teacher Training at University of Granada, Spain. She was the lead postdoctoral marine engineering expert at the University of Sherbrooke, Canada (2020-2022), leading and performing project tasks aimed at studying and modelling damage to marine structures as a consequence of coastal erosion due to Sea Level Rise. These models were relevant to simulate current conditions and erosion damage on the Canadian coast. After that, she was a postdoctoral researcher at the Polytechnic University of Valencia (2022-2023), leader in laboratory testing tasks and development of new ideas to generate a method for repairing structures and solutions with low environmental/economic impact. The main points of her research are (1) analysis of maritime structures from lab-experimentation and numerical modeling, (2) projection of future scenarios and solutions to sea level rise, and (3) seabed behavior around offshore structures. She is the author of numerous contributions in Congresses and Papers in prestigious journals. Her contributions can be consulted in her public profile (www.researchgate.net/profile/Pilar-Diaz-Carrasco).

胡安·J·穆尼奧斯-佩雷斯曾在私營公司從事顧問和公共工程（CORSAN）工作，並在巴塞隆納和卡迪斯的港口工作。作為公務員，他曾擔任大西洋沿海部門項目與工程服務的首席工程師（1989-2004）及其負責人（2009-2012），負責規劃、監督和指導約400項海事工程。自1991年以來，他是卡迪斯大學的教授，教授海岸工程、海底排放管、液壓工程、港口物理模型及沿海動力學等科目。他還是多篇會議論文和在知名期刊上發表的文章的作者，這些都是他通過他所領導的海岸工程研究小組（RNM-912）所管理的項目的成果。其餘的論文可在他的公開資料中查詢（scholar.google.es/citations?user=xyE3rnoAAAAJ&hl=es）。

安東尼奧·孔特雷拉斯·德·比利亞曾在私營公司從事公共工程的執行（Dragados）。他目前是卡迪斯大學工業工程與土木工程系的博士教授，自2001年以來教授港口與海岸工程、港口-海岸互動、沿海動力學以及港口物理模型等科目。他屬於海岸工程研究小組（RNM-912）。他是多篇知名期刊文章的作者，可以在他的公開資料中查詢他的作品（scholar.google.es/citations?user=zeHyqTsAAAAJ&hl=es&oi=ao）。

皮拉爾·迪亞茲-卡拉斯科目前是塞維利亞大學建設工程與工程項目系的助理教授。她在西班牙格拉納達大學獲得土木工程博士學位，並獲得了支持大學教師培訓的預博士合同。她曾是加拿大舍布魯克大學的首席博士後海洋工程專家（2020-2022），負責領導和執行旨在研究和建模因海平面上升導致的海岸侵蝕對海洋結構造成損害的項目任務。這些模型對模擬當前條件和加拿大海岸的侵蝕損害具有重要意義。之後，她在瓦倫西亞理工大學擔任博士後研究員（2022-2023），負責實驗室測試任務的領導以及開發新想法以生成修復結構和低環境/經濟影響解決方案的方法。她的研究主要集中在（1）從實驗室實驗和數值建模分析海洋結構，（2）預測未來情境和應對海平面上升的解決方案，以及（3）離岸結構周圍的海床行為。她是多篇會議論文和在知名期刊上發表的文章的作者。她的貢獻可在她的公開資料中查詢（www.researchgate.net/profile/Pilar-Diaz-Carrasco）。
