    Abstract

    At Twente University we started about 10 years ago with the development of a truly 3-D method of computation for highly nonlinear gravity waves. One of the aims was to develop a robust method, without the need of additional smoothing. Romate [8] developed a boundary integral method of higher order distributions of sources and dipoles, based on Green’s 3rd identity, where also curved surface panels were used. These panels can be seen as patches attached to the surface, which are taken together in a number of networks, e.g. along the free surface, the lateral boundaries and the bottom. The networks are the basic elements in the description of the geometry, especially for the moving boundaries. Basically, a Lagrangian description of the free surface was adopted, whereas the inflow and outflow boundaries were fixed.
