We investigate wind wave growth by direct numerical simulations solving for the two-phase
Navier–Stokes equations. We consider the ratio of the wave speed from 0.1 to 0.3; the two …

OCEAN satellites detect the global sea area in a wide swath with high timeliness. It is of
great significance for humans to acquire ocean information and monitor ocean changes …

In this paper, we study the linear stability of a two-dimensional shear flow of an air layer
overriding a water layer of finite depth. The air layer is considered to be of an infinite extent …

The generation of water waves by wind is a fundamental and much-studied problem of
scientific and operational concern. One mechanism that has obtained a wide degree of …

In this study, the evolution of surface water solitary waves under the action of Jeffreys' wind–
wave amplification mechanism in shallow water is analytically investigated. The analytic …

How wind generates ocean surface waves is a classic fluid mechanics problem, and it is
commonly believed that the resonance mechanism between wind and surface waves, first …

Motivated by wind blowing over water, we use asymptotic methods to study the evolution of
short wavelength interfacial waves driven by the combined action of these flows. We solve …

Wind waves are ubiquitous on the ocean surface and play an active role in air-sea
interactions. Wind waves grow due to wind forcing and dissipate most of their energy …

We solve for waves in an isothermal, stratified medium with a magnetic field that points
along a direction perpendicular to that of gravity and varies exponentially in the direction of …

Asymptotic analysis of surface waves interacting with a wind and a currentFollowing Miles
(1957), surface waves are regarded as perturbations of the wind, modeled as an inviscid …
