Based on the successful multi-edition book "The Physics of Vibrations and Waves" by John Pain, the authors carry over the simplicity and logic of the approach taken in the original first edition with its focus on the patterns underlying and connecting so many aspects of physical…
This monograph offers an account of the mathematical hypothesis of wave motion in liquids with a free surface, subjected to gravitational and other forces. It utilizes both potential and linear wave equation theories, together with applications such as Laplace and Fourier transf…
Offers an integrated account of the mathematical hypothesis of wave motion in liquids with a free surface, subjected to gravitational and other forces. Uses both potential and linear wave equation theories, together with applications such as the Laplace and Fourier transform met…
This volume brings together four lecture courses on modern aspects of water waves. The intention, through the lectures, is to present quite a range of mathematical ideas, primarily to show what is possible and what, currently, is of particular interest. Water waves of large ampl…
