Arena, F. e Guedes Soares, C. (2009), “Nonlinear Crest, Trough, and Wave Height Distributions in Sea States with Double-Peaked Spectra”, Journal of Offshore Mechanics and Arctic Engineering, Vol. 131, N.º 4, pp. 041105/1-041105/8

The peak to trougth distributions of nonlinear high sea waves in bimodal sea states in deep water are investigated. The statistical distribution of wave heigth is first analyzed by considering the Boccotti´s expression, where the parameters of the distribution are calculated for some bimodal spectra of sea states recorded in the Atlantic Ocean. The nonlinear crest and trough distribution are then obtained, particularizing for two peaked spectra the second-order Fedele and Arena expression, which depends on two parameters. The results have been finally validated by means of Monte Carlo simulations of second-order random wave with bimodal spectra.
