3rd-generation formulations:
• Input by wind (Sin)
• Wave-wave interactions:
quadruplets (Snl4)
triads (Snl3)
• Dissipation:
white-capping (Swcap)
depth-induced breaking (Sbr)
bottom friction (Sbot)

•Linear wave growth: Caveleri and Malanotte-Rizzoli (1981):

24. Physics in SWAN: Wind input
Critical issues:
• Effect of gustiness on wind input?
• Is wave growth linearly or quadratically proportional to wind
speed?
• Is there a limit to momentum transfer from atmosphere to wave
field at extreme wind speeds?
• Does wind input depend on wave characteristics in shallow
water (steepness?) ?

25. Physics in SWAN: Whitecapping
Whitecapping is represented by pulse-based model of Hasselmann
(1974), reformulated in terms of wave number (for applicability in finite-water

35. Fetch-limited situations
• Deep water, fetches 5km
• position spectral peak improved (used to be at frequencies too
high), low-frequency part better predicted
• wave energy in high-frequency tail correctly predicted (used to
be too much)
• wave energy better predicted
• Deep water, fetches 5km
• strong overprediction of low-frequency energy (used to be
closer to measurements)
• Shallow water
• computed spectral shape deviates from measured spectral
shape (pronounced spectral peak, onset to secondary peak)

Computation of quadruplets is based on Boltzmann integral for
surface gravity waves;

Van der Westhuysen et

• accuracy vs. CPU
Physics in SWAN: Quadruplets

38. Physics in SWAN: Quadruplets
• Exact methods to solve Boltzmann integral are not suitable for
operational wave models;
• (Initially deep-water) DIA is rather inaccurate, but less time-consuming
(Hasselmann et al., 1985);
• Depth effects have been included by WAM scaling.
• Quadruplets are of relative importance in relative deep water in
concert with white-capping and wind input.
Compared to exact method:
• DIA provides lower significant wave heights and higher
mean wave periods;
• Directional spreading is larger for DIA.

39. Physics in SWAN: Depth-induced wave breaking
Energy dissipation due to depth-induced breaking is modelled by the
bore-based model of Battjes and Janssen (1978) :

54. Critical issues wrt depth-induced wave breaking
• Does wave breaking depend on local wave characteristics, such
as local wave steepness?
• Is the dissipation rate frequency dependent?
• What is influence of long waves on breaking of shorter waves?
• Knowing that Battjes-Janssen model (BJ) hampers wave growth in
shallow water, there is no breaker formulation for the entire
spectrum of bottom slopes (ranging from horizontal to reef-type of
slopes) other than the recently implemented but highly empirical
formulation of Salmon et al. (ICCE, 2012).

61. Physics in SWAN: Triads
• Triads modelled by Lumped Triad Interaction (LTA) method of
Eldeberky (1996).
• In shallow water triads have a significant influence on wave
parameters for non-breaking and breaking waves over a
submerged bar or on a sloping beach.
• Present formulation does not include energy transfer to lower
frequencies. Transfer to higher frequencies often
overestimated. Conclusion: Modelling of triads in 2D wave
prediction models needs improvement.
