On the Formation of Freak Waves on the Surface of Deep Water
PACS: 02.60.Cb, 47.15.Hg, 92.10.-c
Abstract
Numerical simulation of the fully nonlinear water equations demonstrates existence of giant breathers on surface of deep water. Numerics show that this breather (or soliton of envelope) does not loose energy. Existence of such breather can explain appearance of freak waves.
