We study the waves and wave-making forces acting on ships travelling on currents which vary as a function of depth. Our concern is realism; we consider a real current profile from the Columbia River, and model ships with dimensions and Froude numbers typical of three classes of vessels operating in these waters. To this end we employ the most general theory of waves from free-surface sources on shear current to date, which we derive and present here. Expressions are derived for ship waves which satisfy an arbitrary dispersion relation and are generated by a wave source acting on the free surface, with the sources shape and time-dependence is also being arbitrary. Practical calculation procedures for numerically calculating dispersion on a shear current which may vary arbitrarily with depth both in direction and magnitude, are indicated. For ships travelling at oblique angle to a shear-current, the ship wave pattern is asymmetrical, and wave-making radiation forces have a lateral component in addition to the conventional wave resistance, the sternward component. No corresponding lateral force exists in the absence of shear. We consider the dependence of wave resistance and lateral force for upstream, downstream and cross-stream motion on the Columbia River current, both in steady motion and during two different maneouvres: a ship suddenly set in motion, and a ship turning through 360 deg. We find that for smaller ships (tugboats, fishing-boats) the wave resistance can differ drastically from that in quiescent water, and depends strongly on Froude number and direction of motion. For Froude numbers typical of such boats, wave resistance can vary by a factor 3 between upstream and downstream motion, and the strong Froude number dependence is made more complicated by interference effects. The lateral radiation force ... [abstract truncated due to ArXiVs space restrictions]

We investigate the weakly nonlinear dynamics of transient gravity waves at infinite depth under the influence of a shear current varying linearly with depth. An analytical solution is permitted via integration of the Euler equations. Although similar
problems were investigated in the 1960s and 70s for special cases of resonance, this is to our knowledge the first general wave interaction (mode coupling) solution derived to second order with a shear current present. Wave interactions are integrable in a spectral convolution to yield the second order dynamics of initial value problems. To second order, irrotational wave dynamics interacts with the background vorticity field in a way that creates new vortex structures. A notable example is the large parallel vortices which drive Langmuir circulation as oblique plane waves interact with an ocean current. We also investigate the effect on wave pairs which are misaligned with the shear current. In contrast to a conjecture by Leibovich (1983) we find similar, but skewed, vortex structures in every case except when the mean wave direction is perpendicular to the direction of the current. Similar nonlinear wave-shear interactions are found to also generate near-field vortex structures in the Cauchy-Poisson problem with an initial surface elevation. These interactions create further groups of dispersive ring waves in addition to those present in linear theory. The second order solution is derived in a general manner which accommodates any initial condition through mode coupling over a continuous wave spectrum. It is therefore applicable to a range of problems including special cases of resonance. As a by--product of the general theory, a simple expression for the Stokes drift due to a monochromatic wave propagating at oblique angle with a current of uniform vorticity is derived, for the first time to our knowledge.
We consider waves radiated by a disturbance of oscillating strength moving at constant velocity along the free surface of a shear flow which, when undisturbed, has uniform horizontal vorticity of magnitude $S$. When no current is present the problem
is a classical one and much studied, and in deep water a resonance is known to occur when $tau=|boldsymbol{V}|omega_0/g$ equals the critical value $1/4$ ($boldsymbol{V}$: velocity of disturbance, $omega_0$: oscillation frequency, $g$: gravitational acceleration). We show that the presence of the sub-surface shear current can change this picture radically. Not only does the resonant value of $tau$ depend strongly on the angle between $boldsymbol{V}$ and the currents direction and the shear-Froude number $mathrm{Frs}=|boldsymbol{V}|S/g$; when $mathrm{Frs}>1/3$, multiple resonant values --- as many as $4$ --- can occur for some directions of motion. At sufficiently large values of $mathrm{Frs}$, the smallest resonance frequency tends to zero, representing the phenomenon of critical velocity for ship waves. We provide a detailed analysis of the dispersion relation for the moving, oscillating disturbance, in both finite and infinite water depth, including for the latter case an overview of the different far-field waves which exist in different sectors of wave vector space under different conditions. Owing to the large number of parameters, a detailed discussion of the structure of resonances is provided for infinite depth only, where analytical results are available.
The classic evolution equations for potential flow on the free surface of a fluid flow are not closed because the pressure and the vertical velocity dynamics are not specified on the free surface. Moreover, their wave dynamics does not cause circulat
ion of the fluid velocity on the free surface. The equations for free-surface motion we derive here are closed and they are not restricted to potential flow. Hence, true wave-current interaction dynamics can occur. In particular, the Kelvin-Noether theorem demonstrates that wave activity can induce fluid circulation and vorticity dynamics on the free surface. The wave-current interaction equations introduced here open new vistas for both the deterministic and stochastic analysis of nonlinear waves on free surfaces.
We analyze transient dynamics during shear start-up in viscoelastic flows between two parallel plates, with a specific focus on the signatures for the onset of transient shear banding using the Johnson-Segalman, non-stretching Rolie-Poly and Giesekus
models. We explore the dynamics of shear start-up in monotonic regions of the constitutive curves using two different methodologies: (i) the oft-used `frozen-time linear stability (eigenvalue) analysis, wherein we examine whether infinitesimal perturbations imposed on instantaneous stress components (treated as quasi steady states) exhibit exponential growth, and (ii) the more mathematically rigorous fundamental-matrix approach that characterizes the transient growth via a numerical solution of the time-dependent linearized governing equations, wherein the linearized perturbations co-evolve with the start-up shear flow. Our results reinforce the hitherto understated point that there is no universal connection between the overshoot and subsequent decay of shear stress in the base state and the unstable eigenvalues obtained from the frozen-time stability analysis. It may therefore be difficult to subsume the occurrence of transient shear banding during shear start-up within the ambit of a single model-independent criterion. Our work also suggests that the strong transients during shear start-up seen in earlier work could well be a consequence of consideration of the limit of small solvent viscosity in the absence of otherwise negligible terms such as fluid inertia.
Wave resistance is the drag force associated to the emission of waves by a moving disturbance at a fluid free surface. In the case of capillary-gravity waves it undergoes a transition from zero to a finite value as the speed of the disturbance is inc
reased. For the first time an experiment is designed in order to obtain the wave resistance as a function of speed. The effect of viscosity is explored, and a magnetic fluid is used to extend the available range of critical speeds. The threshold values are in good agreement with the proposed theory. Contrary to the theoretical model, however, the measured wave resistance reveals a non monotonic speed dependence after the threshold.
