Nonlinear four-wave interaction and freak waves
Four-wave interactions play an important role in the evolution of the spectrum of surface gravity waves. This follows from direct simulations of an ensemble of ocean waves using the Zakharov equation. The theory of homogeneous four-wave interactions, extended to include effects of nonresonant transfer, compares favourably with the ensemble averaged results of the Monte Carlo simulations. In par...
متن کاملthe effect of taftan pozzolan on the compressive strength of concrete in the environmental conditions of oman sea (chabahar port)
cement is an essential ingredient in the concrete buildings. for production of cement considerable amount of fossil fuel and electrical energy is consumed. on the other hand for generating one tone of portland cement, nearly one ton of carbon dioxide is released. it shows that 7 percent of the total released carbon dioxide in the world relates to the cement industry. considering ecological issu...
Directional Effects on Freak Wave Prediction
The last decade freak waves have become an important topic in engineering and science. The freak waves are sometimes featured by a single and steep crest causing severe damage to structures and ships. The freak wave studies started in the late 80’s and the high-order nonlinear effects on the freak waves were discussed in the early 90’s (i.e.Yasuda et al., 1992). Owing to the many research effor...
متن کاملWhy SAR wave mode data of ERS and Envisat are inadequate for giving the probability of occurrence of freak waves
It would be highly desirable to have a global monitoring tool for the detection of freak or rogue ocean surface waves. Based on the SAR imaging theory of ocean surface waves developed already in the 1980's, it is argued that unfortunately, despite recent claims to the contrary, this is not possible using SAR wave mode data of the ERS and Envisat satellites. The main reason for this is that, due...
متن کاملOn the chance of freak waves at sea
When deep-water surface gravity waves traverse an area with a curved or otherwise variable current, the current can act analogously to an optical lens, to focus wave action into a caustic region. In this region, waves of surprisingly large size, alternatively called freak, rogue, or giant waves are produced. We show how this mechanism produces freak waves at random locations when ocean swell tr...
