Abstract
Typically, storing a two-dimensional wave spectrum could occupy more than one thousand storage units, making saving and reading boundary spectra computationally burdensome in nested wave simulations. This paper proposes a new approach for preservation of a wave spectrum that can reduce the required number of storage units to dozens. Using a corresponding reconstruction approach, the spectrum can then be rebuilt with intact spectral characteristics. Experimental application confirmed that the reconstructed spectra could be adopted as boundary conditions in nested wave modeling. The newly proposed approach for preservation and reconstruction of spectra allows long-term spectral information covering the entire simulated domain to be saved with more acceptable storage consumption, and such information can then be adopted as nesting conditions for nested-child simulations without the limitations of predefined boundaries. The above-mentioned properties of the new method could help support engineering projects concerning wave environments, research focused on wave climatology, and studies associated with wave energy assessment.
