Abstract
An analysis is made of the small-amplitude capillary-gravity waves which occur on the interface of two incompressible inviscid magnetic fluids of different densities. The waves arise as a result of second harmonic resonance. The fluids moving with uniform velocities parallel to their interface are stressed by an oblique magnetic field. The linear relations between the oblique magnetic field and the instability criteria of the linear waves are analyzed. At the stability region (away from the neutral curve) of the linear theory, a pair of coupled non-linear partial differential equations are presented. On the neutral curve, a pair of coupled non-linear partial differential equations are introduced. The last pair of equations may be regarded as the counterparts of the single Klein–Gordon equation which occurs in the non-resonant case. In all cases, the wave profile and its stability conditions are obtained. These conditions are discussed analytically and graphically.
