Wave Impact Forces

Wave Impact Forces is a physical phenomenon within fluid dynamics that represents the instantaneous and localized pressure exerted by a breaking wave on a solid structure, distinguished from sustained hydrodynamic loads by its impulsive nature and high-magnitude peak forces generated during the initial contact phase of wave-structure interaction.
