Abstract
AbstractWe consider strongly nonlinear waves in fluids in a uniform gravity field, and demonstrate that an incompressible wave motion, in which pressure remains constant in each fluid parcel, is supported by compressible fluids with free and rigid boundaries. We present exact analytic solutions of nonlinear hydrodynamics equations which describe the incompressible wave motion. The solutions provide an extension of the Gerstner wave in an incompressible fluid with a free boundary to waves in compressible three-dimensionally inhomogeneous moving fluids such as oceans and planetary atmospheres.
