TLDR
One-dimensional waves in fluids as discussed by the authors were used to describe sound waves and water waves in the literature, as well as the internal wave and the water wave in fluids, and they can be classified into three classes: sound wave, water wave, and internal wave.

Steady Water Waves with Multiple Critical Layers: Interior Dynamics

TL;DR: In this article, the authors studied small-amplitude steady water waves with multiple critical layers and found that arbitrarily many critical layers with cat's-eye vortices are possible, with different structure at different levels within the fluid.

Acoustic analysis of blast waves produced by rapid phase transition of LNG released on water

TL;DR: In this article, the authors studied the effects of rapid phase transition (RPT) on LNG from the point of view of blast wave production, through ab initio acoustic analysis for monopole source.

On the existence of steady periodic capillary-gravity stratified water waves

TL;DR: In this paper, the existence of small steady periodic capillary-gravity water waves for general stratified flows, where they allow for stagnation points in the flow, was proved by using bifurcation theory and estimates based on the ellipticity of the system.

Wave drag on floating bodies

TL;DR: The deceleration of liquid nitrogen drops floating at the surface of a liquid bath is measured and the measured resistance is well predicted by a model imposing a vertical force on a finite area, as long as the wake can be considered stationary.

Measurements of the internal wave wake of a ship in a highly stratified sea Loch

TL;DR: In this paper, an internal wave experiment was conducted in Loch Linnhe, Scotland, in which three ships were used to generate internal wave wakes, and the results confirmed the applicability of the kinematic theory of Keller and Munk for the geometry of the wave pattern.
