Abstract: his study develops a stochastic approach to model short-crested stormy seas as random fields both in space and time. Defining a space?time extreme as the largest surface displacement over a given sea surface area during a ...

Abstract: n unexpected wave is defined by Gemmrich and Garrett as a wave that is much taller than a set of neighboring waves. Their definition of ?unexpected? refers to a wave that is not anticipated by a casual observer. Clearly, ...

Abstract: A stochastic model of sea storms for describing long-term statistics of extreme wave events is presented. The formulation generalizes Boccotti?s equivalent triangular storm model by describing an actual storm history in ...
