Extreme ocean waves
Extreme ocean waves[electronic resource] /edited by Efim Pelinovsky, Christian Kharif. - 2nd ed. - Cham :Springer International Publishing :2016. - xiii, 236 p. :ill., digital ;24 cm.

Preface -- Rogue Waves in Higher Order Nonlinear Schrodinger Models -- Freak-waves: Compact Equation vs Fully Nonlinear One -- Occurrence of extreme waves in finite water depth -- Modelling of RogueWave Shapes in Shallow Water -- Non–Gaussian properties of shallow water waves in crossing seas -- Searching for Factors that limit Observed Extreme MaximumWave Height Distributions in the North Sea -- Extremes and decadal variations of the Baltic Sea wave conditions -- Runup of long irregular waves on plane beach -- Numerical study for run-up of breaking waves of different polarities on a sloping beach -- Tsunami waves generated by cliff collapse: comparison between experiments and triphasic simulations -- An Analytical Model of Large Amplitude Internal Solitary Waves -- Symbolic Computation for Nonlinear Wave Resonances.

This revised and updated second edition details the vast progress that has been achieved in the understanding of the physical mechanisms of rogue wave phenomenon in recent years. The selected articles address such issues as the formation of rogue waves due to modulational instability of nonlinear wave field, physical and statistical properties of extreme ocean wave generation in deep water as well as in shallow water, various models of nonlinear water waves, special analysis of nonlinear resonances between water waves and the relation between in situ observations, experimental data and rogue wave theories. In addition, recent results on tsunami waves due to subaerial landslides are presented.This book is written for specialists in the fields of fluid mechanics, applied mathematics, nonlinear physics, physical oceanography and geophysics, and for students learning these subjects. Throughout the book, in fact, the reader will find a combination of theoretical and statistical/empirical treatment necessary for the complete examination of this subject. … Overall, 'Extreme Ocean Waves' is a valuable contribution to the literature on wave theory and statistics, helping fill an important gap in our knowledge of a variety of unusual waves. It should be of great interest to scientists and engineers studying physical oceanography, wave dynamics and observations, nonlinear physics, and applied mathematics." (Eric L. Geist, Pure and Applied Geophysics, Vol. 168, 2011)
