(author)The objective of this paper is to demonstrate the use of Stereo Photogrammetry (SP) measuring ship-generated waves and to determine under which conditions they are suitable for surfing. A physical experiment is conducted to gain insight in ship wave behavior under specific conditions. Waves are generated by a hull and are measured using SP. It...conference paper 2008

De Vries, S. (author)Wave pools are designed to mimic surfing conditions as they exist along coasts. The Liquid Time Wave Pool concept, invented by Greg Webber, suggests a new method for wave generation. Waves are generated by a hull which moves in a channel. These "ship waves" break on a slope creating surf. Key feature of the concept is to make ship waves surfable...master thesis 2007
