Preface

Water waves hold up a great mirror to one man and let him look at himself inl his billowing blue skyl

IWave motion surrounds us-from the most secret, profound waves of quantuml mechanics to the grand waves of the ocean surfaceJ Ocean waves, or water waves, may be divided into deep- and shallow- water (coastal) waves. From an advance pomt of VIew, coastal waves are not studIed a~ thoroughly as deep-water waves due to a complIcated seabed topography on the former but not on the latter. Therefore, in conjunction with the effects of ubiquij tous ambient currents, wave-current-bottom interactions make up the most funj damental, widespread dynamical mechanism in coastal waters manifesting itselfj as refraction, diffraction, scattering, and resonant wave interactions involved in energyexchanges·1 Apparently, It IS essentIal to obtam a fuII, clear explanation and descnptIon of coastal waves for the development of broad offshore, coastal and harbor enj gineering, and also for having a better understanding of the evolutionary mechj anism of deep-water waves. In fact, a commanding view on long-term investIgatmg water waves IS to whoIIy and umformly treat and descnbe deep- and shaIIow-water waves, thus promoung the present rapid exploratIon and devel1 opment of global oil and gas fields in deep waters of the oceans. The aforementioned views, ideas, judgments, all that I have thought and done over the last ten years, were compiled by me in this book. The book consists ofj nine chapters and appendices from A to H, depicting the fundamental paradigms of weakly nonlInear water waves.

Preface

Chapter 1 makes a concise, historical review of water wave theories with the emphasis on current mild-slope equations and Boussinesq-type equations. An outline of three kinds of fundamental formulations of the surface water wave Iproblems then follows. Chapter 2, on the Liu-Dingemans evolution equations, gives a modification to that, and extensions of that, from third- to fourth-order with stability analysis, and from pure waves to wave-current interactions. Chapter 3 deals with resonant wave-current-bottom interactions, concentrating on subharmonic resonance concerning the modulated wave groups and second-order long waves I Chapter 4 rs dedIcated to SIX kmds of the mIld-slope equations dependmg on the variation of ambient currents and bottom topography. In particular, a new type of conservative quantity, the product of phase velocity and group velocityJ is put forward, and an operator indicating wave-current interaction is introduced to develop a hierarchy of the mild-slope equationsJ Chapter 5 addresses linear gravity waves over rigid, porous bottoms by for1 mulatmg two dIfferent models mvolvmg the mIld-slope equations and the gen1 eral variation of the wave continuity. Chapter 6 leads to a type of nonlinear unified equations suitable for an unevenl Ibottom, containing four kinds of major equations and theories as special cases. Chapter 7, taking into account the Coriolis force and moving bottoms, bears on a generalIzed mean-flow theory for waves on currents, thus creatmg three new kinds of wave actions Chapter 8, on Hamiltonian stratified wave-current interactions, covers three Ikinds of stratified fluid systems with a number of the canonically conjugate

YaIi.ahJ.es. Chapter 9 ISthe longest and devoted to short -crested waves (SCW s), perhaps the SImplest genumely three-dImensIOnal water waves. Ihe mcompatlbIlIty m1 volving standing waves and SCWs is found and effectively solved. Then, linear, first-, second- and third-order theories for pure gravity and capillary-gravity SCWs with or without ambient currents are respectively established in greatl detail, involving wave forces essential to engineering applications I I'hls book IS mmed at researchers and graduate students speclalIzmg m coastal and ocean engmeenng, phYSIcal oceanography, flUId mechamcs and ap1 Iplied mathematics, and at all those who wish to obtain a proper understanding of coastal dynamic processesJ Naturally, this book wiII not always stay "up-to-date" in terms of this rej search, but It can make a baSIC contnbutlOn to coastal wave mvestIgatlOns.
