Popis: Ocean waves are one of the leading environmental factors that cause motion of the ocean’s structure. Wave prediction is of great significance for the safety of marine structures. The deterministic sea wave prediction (DSWP) has been focused on because it provided an accurate temporal wave surface. The propagation velocity of wave components is one of the critical problems in DSWP. In this paper, the research of propagation velocity is focused on. The Taylor expansion to wave number is used to prove that the group velocity is the propagation velocity of wave components. The simulated irregular long crest wave data is generated. Utilizing the simulated data, the calculated wave surfaces based on group velocity are consistent with the simulated results. Meanwhile, the comparisons of calculated results based on the group velocity and phase velocity are given. Then, a tank experiment is set to verify the prediction results. To further investigate the prediction performance under different conditions, the influences of environmental factors, including the wind speed, water depth and sea state are analyzed in this paper.
