Abstract
ABSTRACT Design criteria, and risk evaluation for marine structures, over continental shelf and slope might be affected by currents associated with internal waves. The derivation of design criteria requires long time series of currents at very high sampling rates commonly not available. Therefore, methodologies to derive those time series are required. In this paper, an approach based on numerical modelling is proposed as a proof-of-concept. The Sulu Sea was selected to test the capability of the model to simulate those currents. Model results were compared to data available in the literature. The currents and other properties such as travelling time, wavelength, period and number of waves per packet are within the range of observations.
