Wave Conditions for Offshore Wind Turbine Foundations in Intermediate Water Depths

In this thesis, the effects on regular waves when propagating from deep to shallow water have been investigated, assuming linear wave theory. The effects of shoaling, refraction, reflection and diffraction have been studied. The process and types of breaking waves has also been reviewed.Linear wave...
