Hi, you can use Hydrodynamic Pressure Mapping ACT Extension to map the pressure of hydrodynamic response (time-domain, Aqwa-Naut) analysis to Static Structure. In Aqwa's hydrodynamic response analysis, you can apply irregular wave spectra, then the mapped pressure will be irregular wave pressure (random wave pressure).
