We consider an incompressible viscous flow without surface tension in a finite- depth domain of three dimension, with free top boundary. This system is governed by a Naiver-Stokes equation in a moving domain and a transport equation for the…
We consider the stability of periodic gravity free-surface water waves traveling downstream at a constant speed over a shear flow of finite depth. In case the free surface is flat, a sharp criterion of linear instability is established for…

Internal waves propagate obliquely through a stratified fluid with an angle that is fixed with respect to gravity. Upon reflection on a sloping bed, striking phenomena are expected to occur close to the slope. We present here laboratory…

The resonance mechanism in the initial stage of wind-wave generation proposed by Phillips (J. Fluid Mech., vol. 2, 1957, 417$\unicode{x2013}$445) is a foundation of wind-wave generation theory, but a precise theoretical quantification of…
