CALCULATOR MODULE : Weibull Gumbel And Frechet Extreme Event Probability   ±

Calculate extreme event amplitude and return period from return period data using the Weibull, Gumbel and Frechet probability distributions.

A best fit line is calculated for the data points using the least squares linear regression method. The regression is calculated for X versus Z instead of Z versus X (the X and Z values are swapped). The three parameter distribution amplitude offset is a minimum amplitude. The regression data points and regression parameters are displayed in the output view at the bottom of the page. Use the Data Plot option on the plot bar to display the data points and the best fit line.

CALCULATOR MODULE : Airy Linear Gravity Wave   ±

Calculate Airy wave velocity, acceleration and surface profile. The Airy linear gravity wave theory is a first order model of freshwater and seawater gravity waves. The Airy wave is assumed to have a simple sinusoidal (first order harmonic) profile which is a reasonable approximation for small amplitude deep water waves. As the wave amplitude increases and or the water depth decreases the waves tend to become more peaky and are no longer a simple sinusoidal shape. The Airy wave model is then less accurate for analysing water particle motions. For large amplitude waves, or shallow water waves other wave models such as Stokes wave or Cnoidal wave should be used. The recommended wave type is displayed below the calc bar.

Check that the convergence is close to or equal to one. The wave period should be measured at zero current velocity to avoid Doppler effects.

    CALCULATOR MODULE : Ocean Wave Probability And Return Period   ±

    Calculate ocean wave height and period from return period data using the Weibull, Gumbel or Frechet probability distributions.

    The three parameter distribution and Z offset is used to account for a minimum value, the smallest event which can occur in any sample period. The best fit line is calculated for the data points using the least squares linear regression method. The regression is calculated for return period versus amplitude (the X and Z values are swapped). The regression data points and regression parameters are displayed in the output view at the bottom of the page.
