Abstract
A two-component, hot-film probe has been developed, to measure the wal l shear stress as a vector quantity in time-dependent flows. The probe has been applied for the measurements of the bottom shear stress in a flow generated by combined waves and current in a water basin where t he magnitude and the direction of the bottom shear stress varied perio dically with respect to time. The probe has also been used to measure the bottom shear stress around a vertical cylinder exposed to water wa ves generated in a wave flume.
