Bragg resonance of waves in a two-layer fluid propagating over bottom ripples. Part I. Perturbation analysis

We investigate, via perturbation analyses, the mechanisms of nonlinear resonant interaction of surface-interfacial waves with a rippled bottom in a two-layer density-stratified fluid. As in a one-layer fluid, three classes of Bragg resonances are found to exist if nonlinear interactions up to the th...
