- Abstract
- The breaking of deep-water surface water waves represents one of the most interesting and challenging problems of marine hydrodynamics. Results will be presented on predicting the wave breaking onset and a detailed investigation of the properties and the causes of this onset in deep water. The study is conducted by means of both numerical simulations and laboratory experiment.
