This paper presents an experimental investigation on the rogue waves and the corresponding wave forces acting on a vertical cylinder. The waves are modelled using the Peregrine breather solution of the third-order nonlinear Schrödinger equation. The experimental wave elevations are compared with the theoretical solutions, and the behaviours of wave energy distribution and evolution are calculated using the fast Fourier transformation and wavelet transform (WT) methods. The resulting wave forces acting on the vertical cylinder are compared with the numerical results based on potential flow calculations. Moreover, coherence analyses are conducted for the rogue waves and their impact forces acting on the cylinder based on the WT.
