Abstract
Sea waves are the most important phenomenon to be considered in the design of coastal and offshore structures.
It should be stressed that, even though all contents in the book are related to sea waves, they have a broader application in practice. For example, the extreme theory has also been applied to hydrology, wind mechanics, ice mechanics, etc., not to mention the fact that spectral analysis comes originally from optics and electronics.
The book intents to be a textbook for senior and graduate students who have interest in coastal and offshore structures. The only pre-requirement for the book is the knowledge of linear wave theory.
