Formation of superluminal localized waves (SpLW) -ultrawideband light pulses propagating faster than c without any spread or distortion in free space -is studied. A general approach how to produce exactly the angular spectrum required for generating SpLW in optical domain is introduced and analyzed.
Groups of large nonlinear waves with sharper higher crests can pose hazards to ships, induce harbor resonance and cause wave-overtopping of fixed and floating structures. Past interest in wave groups has mostly been focused on the statistics and modeling of linear wave groups. Studies on nonlinear w
