    Comment on what you observe in figure 3 and 4. What changes there are when running from deep water to shallow water.

    Hello,
    Thank you for your answer.
    I am dealing only with froude number 1, how can I compare those wave patterns?

    It seems you didn't understand the link....as your question is self evident once you understand the basics.

    Then may I suggest you read a book on hydrodynamics.

    Hello, Can you please answer me one last question?
    Why super-critical flow I have shallow depth and for sub-critical I have deep depth?

    Because you are misunderstanding the reference to Froude number.
    There is Froude number - for the vessel.
    And there is Froude depth for the wave.

    The two are different and you are conflating the two as one, they are not.
