| Summary: | behavior of regular waves in a basin include wave linearity, harbor model was used to simulate a large wave basin so that identified as important factors to consider in characterizing identified for the characterization of regular and random identify and quantify the various nonlinearities associated improving the performance of a wave basin. A rectangular in the OTRC wave basin. Certain issues and parameters were intensity, intensity of spreading, and damping were large model basin. The objectives of the study were to both longitudinal reflections, longitudinal and transverse natural methodology to characterize regular and random waves in a NUSIMR and NUSPEC for use in future research studies. periods, and damping. Wave directionality, spectral random waves. This study provided validation of the programs the model, it was possible to identify the cross tank modes the natural periods of oscillation could be estimated. Using This research study focused upon the development of a general wave field evolution, and to make recommendations on waves. Important factors to consider in characterizing the with wave generation, to obtain a better understanding of |
