Modulation of Wind-Wave Breaking by Long Surface Waves
This paper reports the results of field measurements of wave breaking modulations by dominant surface waves, taken from the Black Sea research platform at wind speeds ranging from 10 to 20 m/s.

Experimental study of Bed Pattern around the Cylindrical Pile under Broken Waves [PDF]
Cylindrical piles are often used in most of coastal and offshore structures such as bridges, wharfs, offshore wind turbine foundations and Oil platforms.

The sight and sound of breaking waves and surf is so familiar and enjoyable that we tend to forget how little we really understand about them. Why is it, that compared to other branches of wave studies our knowledge of breaking waves is so empirical and inexact?

Hydrodynamics under large-scale regular and bichromatic breaking waves [PDF]
Multiphase CFD models recently have proved promising in modelling cross†shore sediment transport and morphodynamics (Jacobsen et al 2014). However, modelling breaking wave turbulence remains a major challenge for these models, because it occurs at very

On C-Band Quad-Polarized Synthetic Aperture Radar Properties of Ocean Surface Currents
We present new results for ocean surface current signatures in dual co- and cross-polarized synthetic aperture radar (SAR) images. C-band RADARSAT-2 quad-polarized SAR ocean scenes are decomposed into resonant Bragg scattering from regular (non-breaking)

Scaling approaches and scale effects in wave–flexible structure interaction
Laboratory models are important for research, to inform design solutions and to calibrate and validate numerical models. Unfortunately, model-prototype similarity is often difficult to achieve in small models, resulting in scale effects.

Shear induced breaking of large internal solitary waves
The stability properties of 24 experimentally generated internal solitary waves (ISWs) of extremely large amplitude, all with minimum Richardson number less than 1/4, are investigated.

Laboratory study of energy transformation characteristics in breaking wave groups
The spilling-breaking waves that appear in chirped wave packets are studied in a two-dimensional wave channel. These waves are produced by superposing waves with gradually decreasing frequencies.
