Steep. Short-Crested Waves and Related Phenomena
Steep, short-crested waves, as well as a large variety of three-dimensional propagating wave patterns have been created in laboratory, utilizing a plunging half-cone. Monochromatic waves, over a range of frequencies and amplitudes through breaking and including soliton wave groups near resonance, have been observed and studied in a small wave flume. This monochromatic wavemaker creates complex ...
متن کاملQuasiplanar steep water waves.
A unique description for highly nonlinear potential water waves is suggested, where weak three-dimensional effects are included as small corrections to exact two-dimensional equations written in conformal variables. Contrary to the traditional approach, a small parameter in this theory is not a surface slope, but it is the ratio of a typical wavelength to a large transversal scale along the sec...
متن کاملLong wavelength bifurcation of gravity waves on deep water
Conditions are found for the appearance of non-uniform progressive waves of permanent form from a long-wave modulation of a finite-amplitude Stokes wave on deep water. The waveheight at which the modulated waves can occur is a very slowly decreasing function of the modulation wavelength for values up to 150 times the original wavelength. Some qualitative remarks are made about the problem of de...
متن کاملUnsteady ripple generation on steep gravity–capillary waves
Parasitic ripple generation on short gravity waves (5 cm to 10 cm wavelengths) is examined using fully-nonlinear computations and laboratory experiments. Time-marching simulations show sensitivity of the ripple steepness to initial conditions, in particular to the crest asymmetry. This unique unsteady e ect enhances ripple generation at moderate wave steepness, e.g. ka between 0.15 and 0.20, a ...
متن کاملSpectral Stability of Deep Two-Dimensional Gravity-Capillary Water Waves
In this contribution we study the spectral stability problem for periodic traveling gravity-capillary waves on a two-dimensional fluid of infinite depth. We use a perturbative approach that computes the spectrum of the linearized water wave operator as an analytic function of the wave amplitude/slope. We extend the highly accurate method of Transformed Field Expansions to address surface tensio...
