dynamics, the wave height of a surface wave is the difference between the elevations of a crest and a neighboring trough. Wave height is a term used...

significant wave height (SWH, HTSGW or Hs) is defined traditionally as the mean wave height (trough to crest) of the highest third of the waves (H1/3). It...

A rogue wave at the shore is sometimes called a sneaker wave. In oceanography, rogue waves are more precisely defined as waves whose height is more than...

then control the wave solder process. The height of the solder wave is a key parameter that needs to be evaluated when setting up the wave solder process...

In fluid dynamics, wave shoaling is the effect by which surface waves, entering shallower water, change in wave height. It is caused by the fact that...

states that wave power is proportional to the wave energy period and to the square of the wave height. When the significant wave height is given in metres...

Wave run-up is the height to which waves run up the slope of a revetment, bank or dike, regardless of whether the waves are breaking or not. Conversely...

strength of the electric and the magnetic field vary. Water waves are variations in the height of a body of water. In a crystal lattice vibration, atomic...

The Douglas sea scale is a scale which measures the height of the waves and also measures the swell of the sea. The scale is very simple to follow and...

Surfing waves can be analyzed using the following parameters: breaking wave height, wave peel angle (α), wave breaking intensity, and wave section length...

are dangerous and rare ocean surface waves that unexpectedly reach at least twice the height of the tallest waves around them, and are often described...

waves came in 10 minutes intervals after the first wave. The third wave was the strongest, with a maximum tsunami wave height of 11 m (36 ft). Waves nearly...

In physics, a shock wave (also spelled shockwave), or shock, is a type of propagating disturbance that moves faster than the local speed of sound in the...
