Statistics of Simulated Storm Waves over Bathymetry

This paper shows simulations of high waves over different bathymetries to collect statistical information, particularly kurtosis and crest exceedance, that quantifies the occurrence exceptionally extreme waves. knowledge is especially pertinent for design operation marine structures, safe ship trafficking, mooring strategies ships near coast. Taking advantage flexibility perform numerical with HAWASSI software, aim investigating physical properties these cases, this investigates change in wave statistics related changes depth, breaking differences between long- short-crested Three types bathymetry are considered: run-up coast slope 1/20, a shoal, deep open-water Simulations show good agreement examined cases compared available experimental data simulations. Then predictive higher significant height illustrate may occur during storm events.
