Wind and waves are the main factors of environmental loading on ships and offshore structures. Thus, detailed understanding of wind and wave conditions can improve the design and maintenance of these structures. This paper developed a validated long-term...

The method for the prediction of extreme vertical wave bending moments on a passenger ship based on the hindcast database along the shipping route is presented. Operability analysis is performed to identify sea states when the ship is not able to normall...

The study of extreme waves is important for the protection of coastal and ocean structures. In this work, a 22-year (1990?2011) wave hindcast in the Yellow Sea is employed to perform the assessment of extreme significant wave heights in this area. To ext...
