The formation of surfable waves in a circular wave pool - comparison of numerical and experimental approaches

This paper investigates the capability of a numericalapproach to address the problem of designing a wave pool. Thenumerical approach developed has the potential to reduce thenumber of design alternatives which require testing byeliminating poor performing designs early in the design cycle.For the th...
