Free surface flow measurement and analysis represent a critical area of fluid dynamics research, with numerous applications ranging from flood risk assessment to industrial process optimisation and ...

Free surface flow and solitary waves dynamics encapsulate a rich interplay of nonlinearity and dispersion, underlying phenomena observed in natural and engineered fluid systems. These studies focus on ...

The effect of free-surface drift layers on the maximum height that a steady wave can attain without breaking is explored through experiments and numerical simulations. In the experiments, the waves ...
