Coastal Engineering Proceedings, 1986 Accurate numerical computations of wave trains with small modulations that grow are described. The range of wave steepness and modulation lengths that give breaking waves are determined. The number of wave crests is reduced for a time at greatest modulation but frequency downshifting is not observed. Near-breaking wave-group structure is always similar,

Wave effects on the turning ability of an ultra large container ship in shallow water [PDF]
, 2019 The influence of waves on ship behaviour can lead to hazardous scenarios which put at risk the ship, the crew and the surroundings. For this reason, investigating the effect of waves on manoeuvring is of relevant interest.

A Locally Disordered Metamaterial for Directing and Trapping Water Waves
Crystals, 2023 Manipulating the flow of water wave energy is crucial for ocean wave energy extraction or coastal protection, and the emergence of metamaterials paves a potential way for controlling water waves.

Non-symmetric gravity waves on water of infinite depth [PDF]
, 1987 Two different numerical methods are used to demonstrate the existence of and calculate non-symmetric gravity waves on deep water. It is found that they appear via spontaneous symmetry-breaking bifurcations from symmetric waves.

Numerical Study on Collisions of Solitons of Surface Waves in Finite Water Depth
Fluids, 2023 Head-on collisions between two solitary waves in the framework of the nonlinear Schrödinger (NLS) equation were investigated using the Fourier spectral method. When solitary waves undergo collision, the peak value of surface elevation (hereafter referred

Numerical Study on the Motion and Wave Loads of an Uncrewed Surface Vehicle Catamaran at Low Speed in Sea Waves [PDF]
Journal of Applied Fluid MechanicsModern ship designs are being developed for various purposes in uncrewed operation. In particular, low-speed uncrewed surface vehicle (USV) catamarans have been applied as rescued boats in recent years.

A Lagrangian for water waves [PDF]
, 1996 A Lagrangian for strongly nonlinear unsteady water waves (including overturning waves) is obtained. It is shown that the system of quadratic equations for the Stokes coefficients, which determine the shape of a steady wave (discovered by Longuet-Higgins ...

Traveling-Standing Water Waves
Fluids, 2021 We propose a new two-parameter family of hybrid traveling-standing (TS) water waves in infinite depth that evolve to a spatial translation of their initial condition at a later time.

Horizon effects with surface waves on moving water [PDF]
, 2010 Surface waves on a stationary flow of water are considered, in a linear model that includes the surface tension of the fluid. The resulting gravity-capillary waves experience a rich array of horizon effects when propagating against the flow.
