Impact loads from waves on vessels and coastal structures are complex and mayinvolve wave breaking, which has made these loads difficult to estimatenumerically or empirically. Results from previous experiments have shown a widerange of forces and pressures measured from breaking and nonbreaking waves,with no clear trend between wave characteristics and the localized forces andpressures that they generate. In 2008, a canonical breaking wave impact dataset was obtained at the Naval Surface Warfare Center, Carderock Division, bymeasuring the distribution of impact pressures of incident nonbreaking andbreaking waves on one face of a cube. This experimental effort was sponsored bythe Office of Naval Research (ONR), under the Dynamics of Interacting PlatformsProgram, Program Manager Dr. Ron Joslin. The effects of wave height,wavelength, face orientation, face angle, and submergence depth wereinvestigated. Additionally, a limited number of runs were made at low forwardspeeds, ranging from about 0.5 to 2 knots (0.26 to 1.03 m/s).
