A splitting approach for the fully nonlinear and weakly dispersive Green-Naghdi model [PDF]
The fully nonlinear and weakly dispersive Green-Naghdi model for shallow water waves of large amplitude is studied. The original model is first recast under a new formulation more suitable for numerical resolution.

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)

Controlling the stability transfer between oppositely traveling waves and standing waves by inversion-symmetry-breaking perturbations [PDF]
The effect of an externally applied flow on symmetry degenerated waves propagating into opposite directions and standing waves that exchange stability with the traveling waves via mixed states is analyzed.

Confronting SO(10) GUTs with proton decay and gravitational waves
Grand Unified Theories (GUT) predict proton decay as well as the formation of cosmic strings which can generate gravitational waves. We determine which non-supersymmetric SO(10) breaking chains provide gauge unification in addition to a gravitational ...

On Doppler Shifts of Breaking Waves
Field-tower-based observations were used to estimate the Doppler velocity of deep water plunging breaking waves. About 1000 breaking wave events observed by a synchronized video camera and dual-polarization Doppler continuous-wave Ka-band radar at ...

In the course of the propagation of waves from the offshore to the nearshore zone, the wave may break due to the shoaling effect. Strong impact forces are observed when the breaking wave acts on the pier of the bridge.

Extreme wave groups in a wave flume: Controlled generation and breaking onset [PDF]
Extreme waves in random seas are usually breaking or close to breaking. Understanding the kinematics and evolution of such waves is important for determining loads on offshore structures.

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.
