Abstract: The Boundary Integral Equation Method is used for the spatial solution of a non-linear, periodic water wave problem. The temporal updating of the free water surface is performed using the exact non-linear free surface boundary conditions. By following particles at the free surface (Lagrangian description) steep waves of constant form over many periods, and also overturning waves, can be modelled. The model presented here is two-dimensional and without any structures in the computational domain; however, in principle there are no limitations for the model being extended to three spatial dimensions or for structures being in-cluded.
