The main attention is paid to the abnormal index, AI = Hmas/Hs, being used to characterize the freak waves, and the changes of the coefficient due to wave breaking. The results show that the occurrence probability of freak wave events in non-breaking waves is much larger than that in bleaking waves and such occurrence in deep water is larger than that in shallow water.展开更多
