The Euler's equations describe the motion of inviscid fluid. In the case of shallow water, when a perturbative asymtotic expansion of the Euler's equations is taken (to a certain order of smallness of the scale parameters), relations to…

The two-dimensional free-boundary problem describing steady gravity waves with vorticity on water of finite depth is considered. It is proved that no small-amplitude waves are supported by a horizontal shear flow whose free surface is still…

When traditional linearised theory is used to study gravity-capillary waves produced by flow past an obstruction, the geometry of the object is assumed to be small in one or several of its dimensions. In order to preserve the nonlinear…

We prove that symmetric, doubly periodic, capillary-gravity water waves in finite depth bifurcating from non-uniform non-stagnant shear flows are necessarily two-dimensional to leading order. This is in stark contrast to the case of uniform…
