Nonlinear evolution of a steep, focusing wave group in deep water simulated with OceanWave3D
Steep, focusing waves can experience fast and local nonlinear evolution of the spectrum due to wave–wave interactions resulting in energy transfer to both higher and lower wavenumber components. The shape and kinematics of a steep wave may, thus, differ substantially from the predictions of linear t...
