Abstract

Relying on conformal mappings we prove the logarithmic convexity of certain flow quantities associated with irrotational periodic travelling waves that propagate at the surface of water over a flat bed. These results enable us to quantify the observation that the kinetic energy and the time-period of the particle paths are larger near the surface and reduce with increasing depth.
