Estimation of a Freak Wave Lifetime in the Shallow Sea

Abstract: Unexpected large waves known as freak or rogue waves are a phenomenon emerging in the World Ocean and are causing significant damage to vessels and coastal structures. These waves are often associated with deep-water waves; however, they can also be dangerously close to the shore. The present study is devoted to the numerical modeling of the sea state with parameters close to the ones of the freak wave event that happened in Tillamook Bay, Oregon, on 25 January 2007. Parameters of waves and winds are taken fro… Show more

“…The available data, along with theoretical studies, provide ample evidence for the existence of rogue waves in diverse shapes. For example, these types of waves were also documented and their lifetimes estimated in a recent study by Didenkulova and Pelinovsky [32], where they were examined within the context of wind waves utilizing the KdV equation. It is worth mentioning that series of big waves with more than four peaks were also observed.…”

“…Rogue waves have been extensively catalogued, and they have been shown to pose a significant threat to coastal areas, often causing substantial damage. To ensure the safety of both small boats navigating in shallow waters and people on the shoreline, in-depth investigations into rogue wave phenomena, including the study of their lifetimes (as indicated by Didenkulova and Pelinovsky [32]), are essential. Rogue waves have been part of maritime folklore for centuries, but their systematic measurement only began in the mid-20th century.…”
