Abstract

Although traditional model testing of marine structures in long-crested, unidirectional (2D) waves can lead to conservative results in certain applications, modern multidirectional (3D) wave generators can produce more realistic sea conditions, leading to the design of more accurate, cost-effective and safer structures. This paper justifies the requirements for testing in 3D seas.
