Nonlinear four-wave interaction and freak waves
Four-wave interactions play an important role in the evolution of the spectrum of surface gravity waves. This follows from direct simulations of an ensemble of ocean waves using the Zakharov equation. The theory of homogeneous four-wave interactions, extended to include effects of nonresonant transfer, compares favourably with the ensemble averaged results of the Monte Carlo simulations. In par...
متن کاملDirectional Effects on Freak Wave Prediction
The last decade freak waves have become an important topic in engineering and science. The freak waves are sometimes featured by a single and steep crest causing severe damage to structures and ships. The freak wave studies started in the late 80’s and the high-order nonlinear effects on the freak waves were discussed in the early 90’s (i.e.Yasuda et al., 1992). Owing to the many research effor...
متن کاملNumerical Simulation of Random Irregular Waves for Wave Generation in Laboratory Flumes
Understanding of wave hydrodynamics and its effects are important for engineers and scientists. Important insights may be gained from laboratory studies. Often the waves are simulated in laboratory flumes do not have the full characteristics of real sea waves. It is then necessary to present reliable methods of wave generation in wave flumes. In this paper, the results of numerically simulate...
متن کاملWhy SAR wave mode data of ERS and Envisat are inadequate for giving the probability of occurrence of freak waves
It would be highly desirable to have a global monitoring tool for the detection of freak or rogue ocean surface waves. Based on the SAR imaging theory of ocean surface waves developed already in the 1980's, it is argued that unfortunately, despite recent claims to the contrary, this is not possible using SAR wave mode data of the ERS and Envisat satellites. The main reason for this is that, due...
متن کاملLong Wave Expansions for Water Waves over Random Topography
In this paper, we study the motion of the free surface of a body of fluid over a variable bottom, in a long wave asymptotic regime. We assume that the bottom of the fluid region can be described by a stationary random process β(x, ω) whose variations take place on short length scales and which are decorrelated on the length scale of the long waves. This is a question of homogenization theory in...
