The Hidden Math of Ocean Waves: How Equations Predict the Sea’s Movements
Introduction: Waves as a Language of the Sea Ocean waves are more than rhythmic undulations; they are a language written in mathematics. For researchers and engineers, decoding this language reveals patterns that govern wave height, speed, and energy transfer. From coastal defenses to climate research, the hidden math of ocean waves helps predict how seas…
