On the interaction of wind and steep gravity wave groups using Miles' and Jeffreys' mechanisms
The interaction of wind and water wave groups is investigated theoretically and numerically. A steep wave train is generated by means of dispersive focusing, using both the linear theory and fully nonlinear equations. The linear theory is based on the Schrödinger equation while the nonlinear approac...
