On the Historical Development of the Mathematical Theory of Water Waves

HIstorical overview of the development of wave formulas used in coastal engineering.

Effect of Wave-Current Interaction on the Wave Parameter

The interaction of a gravity wave with a steady uniform current is discussed in this paper. Analysis indicates there is no dominant difference in the results obtained when employing either the equation of conservation of wave energy flux or the equation of conservation of wave action flux. Numerical calculations of the wave length change by...

Water wave models and wave forces with shear currents

Water wave modeIs, incorporating shear currents, are developed for linear and nonlinear waves. The first model assumes a constant vorticity over the depth of the fluid; the case for a wave propagating on a linear shear current. For greater generality, a second model is presented which assumes that the fluid is composed of two layers, each with a...
