Journal ArticleDOI
Experimental evidence of the modulation of a plane wave to oblique perturbations and generation of rogue waves in finite water depth
Alessandro Toffoli,Alessandro Toffoli,Leandro Fernández,Jaak Monbaliu,Michel Benoit,E Gagnaire-Renou,Jean-Michel Lefevre,Luigi Cavaleri,Davide Proment,Csaba Pakozdi,Carl Trygve Stansberg,Takuji Waseda,Miguel Onorato +12 more
TL;DR: In this article, the instability of a plane wave to oblique side band perturbations in finite water depth was investigated and it was shown that a carrier wave becomes modulationally unstable even for relative water depths k 0h < 1.36 when it is perturbed by appropriate oblique disturbances.
Journal ArticleDOI
The North Sea Andrea storm and numerical simulations
Elzbieta M. Bitner-Gregersen,Leandro Fernández,Jean-Michel Lefevre,Jaak Monbaliu,Alessandro Toffoli +4 more
TL;DR: In this paper, a coupling of a spectral wave model with a nonlinear phase-resolving model is used to reconstruct the evolution of wave statistics during a storm crossing the North Sea on 8 and 9 November 2007.
Journal ArticleDOI
Modulational instability and wave amplification in finite water depth
TL;DR: In this paper, it was shown that oblique side bands are capable of triggering modulational instability and eventually leading to the formation of rogue waves also for the conditions of finite water depth.

Book ChapterDOI
Occurrence of extreme waves in finite water depth
TL;DR: In this article, a comparative analysis of the statistical properties of surface gravity waves in water of finite depth is discussed by analyzing laboratory experiments, field measurements, and numerical simulations to assess the role of modulational instability on wave statistics and particularly on the occurrence of extremes.
