About this document

Nonlinear Wave-Current Interactions by Jorge Sandoval Ulloa is a document available to read on EtoBox.

This document summarizes a research article that numerically investigates nonlinear interactions between deep-water waves and underlying currents using a boundary-integral method. The study finds that opposing currents can induce wave steepening, blocking, and breaking. For rapidly varying currents, reflection of waves is observed when strong adverse currents are imposed. The fully nonlinear results show partial wave blocking at individual wave components in wave groups, and waves becoming almost monochroma
