The edge wave is a kind of infragravity wave. It¡¦s forcing and evolu- ion are different from common progressive waves. It may damage the co- astal area when a wave incident to the shore with an angle is reflected and reflected back by topography. In this thesis,by AWCP deployed near Kao- hsiung and Hualien harbor,the flow and surface elevation of the tsunami generated in PingTung earthquake and typhoon waves are analyzed.By assuming uni-directional progressive waves and HHT, the theoretical solution is used to check if the edge wave exists. The primary results suggest that Stokes edge wave is a significant component of the tsunami in Kaohsiung area and it might be generated when the tsunami arrived the DongGung or SGC.The infragravity wave generated by typhoon waves in typhoon Kaemi, Bopha and Hugupit are also edge waves by the relation between pressure and flow.That means edge waves be generated by typhoon waves outside the Hualien harbor will transport low frequence energy to the the harbor basin and cause the resonance of Hualien harbor.

This thesis is concerned with the derivation of new wave adaptors for the Brune section, the Darlington C and De sections, and an adaptor for the Twin-T structure. These wave adaptors have been derived by applying Martens' and Meerkötter's n-port voltage scattering matrix representation to the corresponding reference network interconnections. The following results have been obtained: a) The Brune, C and D adaptors are realized without any unit elements. b) The adaptors in a0 are canonical in the number of delays. c) All the adaptors considered may have a reflection-free port which makes cascade synthesis possible. d) The Brune and C adaptors require six multipliers, four of which are independent and two of which are identical. e) The D adaptor requires a total number of eleven multipliers, seven of which are independent and two pairs of which are identical. f) The Twin-T adaptor requires ten multipliers of which seven are independent. g) In a hardware realization, all the adaptors considered are made to have zero output after a finite time for zero input by means of a simple arithmetic procedure. Illustrative examples of filters using these structures have been designed, and simulated on a minicomputer. Their respective impulse responses are obtained and show no granularity and/or overflow oscillations, as expected.
