Workshop theme

This EuroConference will occupy the third week of the Newton Institute research programme "Surface Water Waves". The aim is to discuss a wide range of theoretical developments at the end of the 20th century and their implications for theory and practice, and to discuss open problems and new directions for research on water waves in the 21st century. Topics under discussion will include: large amplitude, limiting form and breaking of waves; numerics of water waves; ray tracing; asymptotic models; Hamiltonian, Lagrangian and multi-symplectic structures; perturbation by weak damping and forcing; model PDES and integrability; solitary waves; stability of waves and patterns; wind-wave, wave-wave and wave-turbulence interactions.
