Surface wave predictions in weakly nonlinear directional seas
HighlightsWe employ laboratory and numerical experiments to investigate the prediction of individual waves in directional seas.For long crested waves we achieve reliable prediction for several tens of characteristic wavelengths.For short crested waves the accuracy of prediction is strongly reduced with increasing directional spread.
AbstractWe have employed laboratory and numerical experiments in order to investigate propagation of waves in both long and short-crested wave fields in deep water. For long-crested waves with steepness, ϵ=kcac=0.1 (a fairly extreme case), reliable prediction can be performed with the modified nonlinear Schrödinger equation up to about 40 characteristic wavelengths. For short-crested waves the accuracy of prediction is strongly reduced with increasing directional spread.
