This study aims to analyze the effect of actuator inclination angle in a DC motor-based wave simulation system on the characteristics of artificial ocean waves, specifically wave height, wavelength, and wave period. The simulation was conducted in a laboratory wave channel using a flap-type actuator driven by a DC motor controlled via a PWM system. The treatments tested included variations in actuator angles (30°, 45°, and 60°), and motor speed is tested at 12 cm water depth, the procedure is repeated for 15 cm depth. Overall, the results at 12 cm and 15 cm water depths indicate a strong positive relationship between the actuator inclination angle and the resulting wave height. Water depth was also found to be a significant factor influencing wave height, where shallower depths tend to produce higher waves. These findings offer valuable insights into wave dynamics in simulation tanks and can serve as a reference for the design of actuator systems and other wave engineering applications
