What makes the Peregrine soliton so special as a prototype of freak waves? (2010, background): “The situation resembles that of wave breaking which in itself is an essentially nonlinear phenomenon, but is caused by the development of some linear and weakly nonlinear effects [8] Howell Peregrine was one of the first who identified the key role of the modulational instability in the formation of”
Statistical properties of mechanically generated surface gravity waves: a laboratory experiment in a three-dimensional wave basin (2009, result): “It should also be mentioned that recently a direct connection between the breaking phenomena and the modulational instability has been discussed in Song & Banner (2002), therefore we believe that the present results may also represent a first step towards the development of a new dissipation source…”
Inertial scaling of dissipation in unsteady breaking waves (2008, methodology): “For similar wave focusing experiments to those we have described here, following Song & Banner (2002), BP suggest that the onset of breaking and the breaking parameter b can be correlated with an associated non-dimensional parametric mean growth rate δ(t), defined by (6.1).”
Wave breaking onset and strength for two-dimensional deep-water wave groups (2007, background): “For the cases of idealized nonlinear wave groups investigated, the observations confirmed the evolutionary trends of the modelling results of Song & Banner (2002) with regard to predicting breaking onset.”
Capillary effects on wave breaking (2015, background): “When breaking is triggered by modulational instabilities, plunging waves can be observed for initial slopes ≈ 0.11 (Melville 1982; Tulin & Waseda 1999; Song & Banner 2002; Banner & Peirson 2007; Iafrati et al. 2013).”
Performance of a Saturation-Based Dissipation-Rate Source Term in Modeling the Fetch-Limited Evolution of Wind Waves (2003, methodology): “The very recent study by Song and Banner (2002) reported a breaking threshold that is independent of initial group structure and size.”
Freak waves as nonlinear stage of Stokes wave modulation instability (2006, result): “Similar problem was studied in Song and Banner (2002). But instead of long wavetrain they studied evolution of small group of waves.”
