Statistical Investigation of the Surface Profile of Rogue Waves in 2d Non-breaking Seas
نویسندگان
چکیده
Rogue waves or freak waves are very large amplitude waves compare to the ambient waves in a given sea state. There are very few recording of such waves and therefore, despite years of research, very little is known about their properties. Here we invoke a statistical approach to find out about the typical shape of these giant waves. We consider different sea states and unidirectional vs crossing seas and study how each environment affects the morphology of oceanic rogue waves.

On the occurrence of wave breaking
The practicality of common wave breaking criteria is reviewed. Video recordings of the sea surface taken from aboard R/P FLIP are used to extract breaking wave properties. The key quantity is Λ(c)dc, the length of breaking crests per unit area propagating with speeds in the range (c, c+ dc). Independent of wave field development, Λ(c) is found to peak at intermediate wave scales and to drop off...
متن کاملRogue waves and wave breaking – How are these phenomena related?
According to prevailing ideas, the formation of rogue waves and the onset of wave breaking share a common physical framework: energy focusing within nonlinear wave groups. For 2D (one horizontal spatial direction) wave packet evolution, this correspondence appears to be very close. However, the situation is less clear for 3D propagation, and in the open ocean, observed breaking of dominant wind...
متن کاملSolution of Wave Equations Near Seawalls by Finite Element Method
A 2D finite element model for the solution of wave equations is developed. The fluid is considered as incompressible and irrotational. This is a difficult mathematical problem to solve numerically as well as analytically because the condition of the dynamic boundary (Bernoulli’s equation) on the free surface is not fixed and varies with time. The finite element technique is applied to solve non...

The rouge waves in an optically injected semiconductor lasers are receiving a lot of interest. In this work, the generating and controlling of the rogue waves in semiconductor lasers have been investigated. For this purpose, the laser’s rate equations are solved numerically in a specified time interval, then the field amplitude and the intensity versus time are calculated and analyzed. To solve...
