Rogue Wave Statistics from a Sparse Coherent Structure Decomposition
Yuchen He, Amin Chabchoub, Zhan Wang
While conventional rogue wave statistical models rely on linear or weakly nonlinear descriptions of random seas, we demonstrate experimentally that moderately or strongly nonlinear…
Energetics and Stochastics of Extreme Waves Breaking over a Symmetrical Breakwater
Saulo Mendes, Yuchen He, Jérôme Kasparian +1
Rogue wave formation and enhancement over coastal areas have been documented over the last decade. This seems to contradict the observed low rogue wave (RW) probability near the su…
Shoaling of Finite-Amplitude Rogue Waves
Saulo Mendes, Yuchen He, Jérôme Kasparian +1
Rogue wave formation and enhancement over coastal areas have been documented over the last decade. However, this recent knowledge is in apparent contradiction with the established…
On Long-Crested Ocean Rogue Waves Originating From Localized Amplitude and Frequency Modulations
Yuchen He, Amin Chabchoub
Rogue waves are known to occur on the ocean surface leading to significant damage to marine installations and compromising ship safety. Understanding the physical mechanisms respon…
Hydrodynamic modulation instability triggered by a two-wave system
Yuchen He, Jinghua Wang, Bertrand Kibler +1
The modulation instability (MI) is responsible for the disintegration of a regular nonlinear wave train and can lead to strong localizations in a from of rogue waves. This mechanis…
Lifetime Characterization of Extreme Wave Localizations in Crossing Seas
Yuchen He, Jinghua Wang, Jingsong He +3
Rogue waves (RWs) can form on the ocean surface due to quasi-four wave resonant interaction or superposition principle. Both mechanisms have been acutely studied. The first of the…
