Wave loads on ocean infrastructure increase as a result of waves passing over abrupt depth transitions
Abrupt changes in water depth are known to lead to abnormal free-surface wave statistics. The present study considers whether this translates into abnormal loads on offshore infrastructure. A fully non-linear numerical model is used which is carefully validated against experiments. The wave kinemati...
