Laboratory Modeling and Theoretical Studies of Wave Processes in the Ocean. Part3. Second Stage Results

摘要

The results of theoretical and experimental studies of surface water waves andtheir interactions with subsurface currents and turbulence are presented. The theoretical chapter includes the theory of short wind-wave growth rate modulation by long surface waves, of nonlinear evolution of a short surface wave train, and of surface wave scattering by a moving body. The experiments described are a detailed investigation of two-dimensional contrasts in a surface wave created by an inhomogeneous current, optical measurements of curvature and slope distributions in gravity-capillary waves, and laboratory experiments on surface wave interaction with a small-scale turbulence.
