Ocean engineering

numerical nonlinear wave theory that fits a stream function series to the free-surface conditions, used to define design waves in deep and shallow water.

In ocean engineering, Dean stream function wave theory refers to numerical nonlinear wave theory that fits a stream function series to the free-surface conditions, used to define design waves in deep and shallow water. This meaning comes from Dean (1965) in Journal of Geophysical Research.[1]
