Journal ArticleDOI
Nonlinear resonance of free surface waves in a current over a sinusoidal bottom: a numerical study
TL;DR: In this article, the free surface flow over a fixed bed covered by rigid sinusoidal dunes is examined and the instability of the steady and nonlinear solution of Mei (1969) and the possibility of chaos when the current has a small oscillatory component.
Journal ArticleDOI
Sound signals of tsunamis from a slender fault
Chiang C. Mei,Usama Kadri +1 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors simplify existing works by treating the sound wave alone without the much slower gravity wave, and derive a two-dimensional theory for signals emanating from a fault of finite length.
Journal ArticleDOI
An asymptotic theory for water waves on beaches of mild slope
TL;DR: In this paper, a new technique of asymptotic expansion is applied to water wave propagation over an uneven bottom that has straight and parallel contours, where the bottom depth is assumed to vary slowly within a wavelength.
Journal ArticleDOI
Steady Free Surface Flow Over Wavy Bed
TL;DR: In this paper, the steady free surface flow past a wavy bed is analyzed near the resonance speed, and it is shown that the free surface amplitude always remains finite when nonlinearity of the problem is taken into account.
Journal ArticleDOI
Forces on a slender ship advancing near the critical speed in a wide canal
Chiang C. Mei,Hang S. Choi +1 more
TL;DR: In this article, the authors extended the theory of Mei (1986) to study the phenomenon of upstream influence by a slender ship moving near the critical speed, and showed that the response on the sea surface is essentially one-dimensional with the wave crests perpendicular to the ship's axis.
