Abstract

A numerical comparison study is carried out on a variety of methods for synthesizing pseudo-random Gaussian wave records for laboratory wave generation. Three nonharmonic superposition methods and three time domain filtering procedures are compared to a harmonic FFT technique. The synthesis methods are evaluated on the basis of a statistical analysis of 16 standard wave parameters obtained from a set of 200 wave records. Second order group-bounded long wave components are also investigated.
