Linear water waves with vorticity: rotational features and particle paths
Mats Ehrnstrom, Gabriele Villari
Steady linear gravity waves of small amplitude travelling on a current of constant vorticity are found. For negative vorticity we show the appearance of internal waves and vortices…

On the streamlines and particle paths of gravitational water waves
Mats Ehrnstrom
We investigate steady symmetric gravity water waves on finite depth. For non-positive vorticity it is shown that the particles display a mean forward drift, and for a class of wave…
