The basic architecture of these Waves is based on the TweakWaves application written by Chris Horvath for Tweak Films in 2001. This, in turn, was based on the SIGGRAPH papers and courses by Jerry Tessendorf, and by the paper "A Simple Fluid Solver based on the FTT" by Jos Stam.

The TMA, JONSWAP, and Pierson Moskowitz Wave Spectra, as well as the directional spreading functions are formulated based on the descriptions given in "Ocean Waves: The Stochastic Approach", by Michel K. Ochi, published by Cambridge Ocean Technology Series, 1998,2005.

This library is written as a working implementation of the paper:
