Weakly non-linear analysis of wind-driven gravity waves
Alexandros Alexakis, Yuan-Nan Young, Robert Rosner
We study the weakly non-linear development of shear-driven gravity waves, and investigate the mixing properties of the finite amplitude solutions. Calculations to date have been re…

On the shear instability of fluid interfaces
A. Alexakis, Y. Young, R. Rosner
We examine the linear stability of fluid interfaces subjected to a shear flow. Our main object is to generalize previous work to arbitrary Atwood number, and to allow for surface t…
