The Dirichlet problem for the wave equation is a classical example of a problem which is not well-posed. Nevertheless, it has been used to model internal waves oscillating sinusoidally in time, in various situations, standing internal waves…

We study the exact controllability for spatially periodic water waves with surface tension, by localized exterior pressures applied to free surfaces. We prove that in any dimension, the exact controllability holds within arbitrarily short…
We prove the exact controllability of two-dimensional hydroelastic waves in the periodic setting. We show that if the initial data and the final data are small, for exterior pressure whose support is any non-empty open set $\omega$, the…
Starting from the two-dimensional Boussinesq equation without rotation, we derive a kinetic equation for weak interaction of internal waves using non-canonical variables. We follow a formalism introduced by P. Ripa in the 80's. The…
The classical equations of irrotational water waves have recently been reformulated as a system of two equations, one of which is an explicit non-local equation for the wave height and for the velocity potential evaluated on the free…
Faraday waves are a classic example of a system in which an extended pattern emerges under spatially uniform forcing. Motivated by systems in which uniform excitation is not plausible, we study both experimentally and theoretically the…
We prove existence and regularity of periodic in time solutions of completely resonant nonlinear forced wave equations with Dirichlet boundary conditions for a large class of non-monotone forcing terms. Our approach is based on a…
In the present paper, we combine numerical and experimental approaches to study the dynamics of stable and unstable internal wave attractors. The problem is considered in a classic trapezoidal setup filled with a uniformly stratified fluid.…

Time-periodic weak solutions for a coupled hyperbolic-parabolic system are obtained. A linear heat and wave equation are considered on two respective $d$-dimensional spatial domains that share a common $(d-1)$-dimensional interface…
We study the long time evolution of internal waves in two dimensional subcritical channels with flat horizontal ends. We show the leading profiles of solutions are the outgoing solutions to the stationary equations. This is done by showing…
The search for solutions to the theory of weakly non-linear internal gravity wave turbulence is an active research topic. It is notably stimulated by the fact that this regime could drive fine-scale ocean dynamics for which the…
We revisit the problem of a triad of resonantly interacting nonlinear waves driven by an external force applied to the unstable mode of the triad. The equations are Hamiltonian, and can be reduced to a dynamical system for 5 real variables…
Periodic travelling waves are considered in the class of reduced Ostrovsky equations that describe low-frequency internal waves in the presence of rotation. The reduced Ostrovsky equations with either quadratic or cubic nonlinearities can…
