We analytically and numerically study the role of the homogeneous zero mode on the interaction between two modulational instabilities. Periodic and localized structures (LSs) are considered in two ...

These waves are at least twice as tall as the surrounding waves. They’re unpredictable. They can come from unexpected directions, often against prevailing winds and swells. You need a whole cocktail ...

The chapter also discusses recent works in which the phenomena of incoherent modulational instability and incoherent localized temporal structures have been described in the framework of a Vlasov ...

An introduction is given to stochastic description of ocean waves, wave spectrum, wave statistics, and definition of freak waves. An introduction is also given to nonlinear wave resonance, free and ...
