Oceanic rogue waves

K Dysthe, HE Krogstad, P Müller - Annu. Rev. Fluid Mech., 2008 - annualreviews.org
Oceanic rogue waves are surface gravity waves whose wave heights are much larger than
expected for the sea state. The common operational definition requires them to be at least …

Statistics of extreme events in fluid flows and waves

TP Sapsis - Annual Review of Fluid Mechanics, 2021 - annualreviews.org
Extreme events in fluid flows, waves, or structures interacting with them are critical for a wide
