Fast and local non-linear evolution of steep wave-groups on deep water: A comparison of approximate models to fully non-linear simulations

The Non-linear Schrödinger Equation and its higher order extensions are routinely used for analysis of extreme ocean waves. This paper compares the evolution of individual wave-packets modelled using Non-linear Schrödinger type equations with packets modelled using fully non-linear potential flow mo...
