We determine the phase portrait of a Hamiltonian system of equations describing the motion of the particles in linear deep-water waves. The particles experience in each period a forward drift which decreases with greater depth.
The Lagrangian formulation for the irrotational wave motion is straightforward and follows from a Lagrangian functional which is the difference between the kinetic and the potential energy of the system. In the case of fluid with constant…
Stability of inviscid shear shallow water flows with free surface is studied in the framework of the Benney equations. This is done by investigating the generalized hyperbolicity of the integrodifferential Benney system of equations. It is…
