Offshore structures having large diameter columns at the waterline cause a significant disturbance to the ambient wave field, and large run–up around the columns. The paper discusses prediction of this effect in regular sinusoidal waves and in focused wave groups characteristic of extreme storm waves. Results are obtained from linear and second–order nonlinear analytical solutions for vertical circular cylinders. For very large waves, however, a fully nonlinear analysis is needed, which must be based on numerical discretization in both temporal and spatial dimensions. A finite–element procedure for predicting the interaction of steep waves with offshore structures is briefly introduced.
