Dispersion Relations for Periodic Water Waves with Surface Tension and Discontinuous Vorticity
نویسنده
چکیده
We derive the dispersion relation for water waves with surface tension and having a piecewise constant vorticity distribution. More precisely, we consider here two scenarios; the first one is that of a flow with constant non-zero vorticity adjacent to the flat bed while above this layer of vorticity we assume the flow to be irrotational. The second type of flow has a layer of non-vanishing vorticity adjacent to the free surface and is irrotational below.

Effect of non-zero constant vorticity on the nonlinear resonances of capillary water waves
The influence of an underlying current on three-wave interactions of capillary water waves is studied. The fact that in irrotational flow resonant three-wave interactions are not possible can be invalidated by the presence of an underlying current of constant non-zero vorticity. We show that: 1) wave trains in flows with constant non-zero vorticity are possible only for two-dimensional flows, 2...
متن کاملComparison of Modulational Instabilities in Full-dispersion Shallow Water Models
We study the modulational instability of a shallow water model, with and without surface tension, which generalizes the Whitham equation to include bi-directional propagation. Without surface tension, the small amplitude periodic traveling waves are modulationally unstable if their wave number is greater than a critical wave number predicting a Benjamin-Feir type instability and the result qual...
متن کاملRegularity for steady periodic capillary water waves with vorticity.
In the following, we prove new regularity results for two-dimensional steady periodic capillary water waves with vorticity, in the absence of stagnation points. Firstly, we prove that if the vorticity function has a Hölder-continuous first derivative, then the free surface is a smooth curve and the streamlines beneath the surface will be real analytic. Furthermore, once we assume that the vor...
متن کاملExact Solitary Water Waves with Vorticity
The solitary water wave problem is to find steady free surface waves which approach a constant level of depth in the far field. The main result is the existence of a family of exact solitarywaves of small amplitude for an arbitrary vorticity. Each solution has a supercritical parameter value and decays exponentially at infinity. The proof is based on a generalized implicit function theorem of t...
