Executive Summary | One of the observation methods of directional wave spectra is the analysis of simultaneous wave profile records obtained with a wave gauge array. The present report examines the applicability of the maximum-likelihood-method(MLM) for directional spectral analysis of the sea waves, with numerically simulated profiles of irregular waves. For free progressive waves, the MLM reproduces the directional spectra of simulated waves quite well and is capable of resolving two wave groups superimposed each other. |
