Wavelet analysis of Wave motion

Fluid Dynamics 2017-06-27 v1

Abstract

In this paper high resolution wave probe records are examined using wavelet techniques with a view to determining the sources and relative contributions of capillary wave energy along representative wind wave forms. Wavelets enable computations of conditional spectra and turn out to be powerful tools for the study of the development and propagation of capillary waves. They also enable the detailed analyses of the relative contributions to the spectrum of the wave peaks and troughs.
