▪ Abstract We concentrate on the rich effects that surface tension has on free and forced
surface waves for linear, nonlinear, and especially strongly nonlinear waves close to or at …

Wave Interactions and Fluid Flows is a coherent, up-to-date and comprehensive account of
theory and experiment on wave-interaction phenomena, both in fluids at rest and in shear …

The average thickness of the wetting film left behind during the slow passage of an air
bubble in a water-filled capillary tube of circular cross-section has been determined …

The two-dimensional steady flow of a fluid over a semicircular obstacle on the bottom of a
stream is discussed. A linearized theory is presented, along with a numerical method for the …

At any free surface at which the tangential stress τns vanishes there must be a surface
vorticity ω=− 2κq, where κ is the curvature and q the tangential velocity. In a surface wave on …

This book is a self-contained introduction to the theory of periodic, progressive, permanent
waves on the surface of incompressible inviscid fluid. The problem of permanent water …

Free surface problems occur in many aspects of science and of everyday life such as the
waves on a beach, bubbles rising in a glass of champagne, melting ice, pouring flows from a …

Two-dimensional solitary and periodic waves in water of finite depth are considered. The
waves propagate under the combined influence of gravity and surface tension. The flow, the …

We present new numerical solutions for nonlinear standing water waves when the effects of
both gravity and surface tension are considered. For small values of the surface tension …

Two-dimensional periodic waves beneath an elastic sheet resting on the surface of an
infinitely deep fluid are investigated using a high-order series-expansion technique. The …
