Evolution of a Random Directional Wave and Freak Wave Occurrence
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: The evolution of a random directional wave in deep water was studied in a laboratory wave tank (50 m long, 10 m wide, 5 m deep) utilizing a directional wave generator. A number of experiments were conducted, changing the ...
Interplay of Resonant and Quasi-Resonant Interaction of the Directional Ocean Waves
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Recent experimental study of the evolution of random directional gravity waves in deep water provides new insight into the nature of the spectral evolution of the ocean waves and the relative significance of resonant and ...
Large Tank Evaluation of a GPS Wave Buoy for Wind Stress Measurements
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: AbstractThere exists considerable disagreement among the observed values of the drag coefficient CD. To develop a model of CD, the wind stress generally will be calculated from the eddy correlation method. A buoy is suitable ...
