This was incredibly whelming.

Something about this makes me extremely uneasy.

We used to do this in our round pool with the inflatable ring at the top. We would jump up and down until the waves got going and it would shoot upwards in the center.

What would happen to me if i were in the middle? Probably just a little bit of flying, not much. Right?

This is a next level, supercharged, version of the kiss of Poseidon.

This is what happens when you give interdimensional portals to children. "Ooo!!!! Let's make big waves!!!"

HOW FLOWAVE WORKS The heart of FloWave is a 100-foot (30 metres) circular concrete basin containing the 82-foot (25 metres) diameter wave and current tank. The 16-foot (five metres) deep tank contains 2.4 million litres (530,000 gallons) of fresh water and is ringed by 168 absorbing wave makers. Additionally, 28 submerged flow-drive units can simultaneously and independently drive current across the tank in any relative direction, with maximum current velocities of 5.2 feet (1.6 metres) per second. A rising tank floor and overhead crane enable quick and easy installation of individual devices, or arrays of wave or tidal current generators. The pool is 82 feet (25 metres) across and 6.6 feet (two metres) deep. It recreates waves and currents from coastlines around the UK, Europe and beyond. Its full name is the FloWave Ocean Energy Research Facility and it can simulate scale version equivalents of waves up to 92 feet (28 metres) high with currents of up to 14 knots using 2.4 million litres (530,000 gallons) of water. The facility is designed for researchers and industrial partners to develop and refine full-scale devices such as wave and tidal energy converters. It can also be used to test floating offshore wind platforms and vessels to install and maintain offshore projects. By testing devices at scale in a tank, researchers can achieve milestones in days or weeks compared with months or years in open water. This accelerated development could bring clean energy products to market more quickly and cost-effectively, at lower risk.

Here a crowd watches as the pool generates waves during a demonstration The pool can be used to generate fast currents and high waves. Its currents can go as fast as an Olympic swimmer while its waves can reach up to nine stories high.

Professor Philip Nelson, Chief Executive of the Engineering and Physical Sciences Research Council, added: ‘EPSRC’s investment in the FloWave facility will help keep the UK at the forefront of marine energy technology research and development. ‘Research here can accelerate the deployment of these technologies which, in turn, will help us meet our low-carbon targets, create jobs and boost growth.’ The facility is designed for researchers and industrial partners to develop and refine full-scale devices such as wave and tidal energy converters.

Ye climax?

Anybody knows how is such spike caused?

hmm

Beautiful demonstration of what I imagine is constructive interference. Though... does it make anyone else kind of inexplicably uncomfortable? Must have been the boxed pizza.
