On the variation of of bi-periodic waves in the transverse direction

D. M. Henderson, J. D. Carter, M. E. Catalano

Bi-periodic patterns of waves that propagate in the x direction with amplitude variation in the y direction are generated in a laboratory. The amplitude variation in the y directio…

Fully dispersive Boussinesq models with uneven bathymetry

John D. Carter, Evgueni Dinvay, Henrik Kalisch

Three weakly nonlinear but fully dispersive Whitham-Boussinesq systems for uneven bathymetry are studied. The derivation and discretization of one system is presented. The numerica…

Stability of Periodic, Traveling-Wave Solutions to the Capillary-Whitham Equation

John D. Carter, Morgan Rozman

Recently, the Whitham and capillary-Whitham equations were shown to accurately model the evolution of surface waves on shallow water. In order to gain a deeper understanding of the…

A Comparison of Frequency Downshift Models of Wave Trains on Deep Water

John D. Carter, Diane Henderson, Isabelle Butterfield

Frequency downshift (FD) in wave trains on deep water occurs when a measure of the frequency, typically the spectral peak or the spectral mean, decreases as the waves travel down a…

Particle trajectories in nonlinear Schrodinger models

John D. Carter, Christopher W. Curtis, Henrik Kalisch

The nonlinear Schrodinger equation is well known as a universal equation in the study of wave motion. In the context of wave motion at the free surface of an incompressible fluid,…

Spectral up- and downshifting of Akhmediev breathers under wind forcing

D. Eeltink, A. Lemoine, H. Branger +6

We experimentally and numerically investigate the effect of wind forcing on the spectral dynamics of Akhmediev breathers, a wave-type known to model the modulation instability. We…
