If the wave motion is considered as a solution of Laplace's differential equation, subject to appropriate boundary conditions, it is concluded that it is only necessary to impose, around the whole perimeter of the model basin, wave heights representing, to model scale, those which were observed at corresponding locations in the prototype storm sea.reportsengCopyright and other restrictions may apply.
