The intention, through the lectures, is to present quite a range of mathematical ideas, primarily to show what is possible and what, currently, is of particular interest. Water waves of large amplitude can only be fully understood in terms of nonlinear effects, linear theory being not adequate for their description. Taking advantage of insights from physical observation, experimental evidence and numerical simulations, classical and modern mathematical approaches can be used to gain insight into their dynamics. The book presents several avenues and offers a wide range of material of current interest. Due to the interdisciplinary nature of the subject, the book should be of interest to mathematicians (pure and applied), physicists and engineers. The lectures provide a useful source for those who want to begin to investigate how mathematics can be used to improve our understanding of water wave phenomena. In addition, some of the material can be used by those who are already familiar with one branch of the study of water waves, to learn more about other areas. The lectures cover background material as well as aspects that represent the state-of-the-art. We therefore commend this collection of lectures to both the novice and the expertDifferential equationsPartial differential equationsMathematical physicsEscher, Joachimauthorhttp://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut66887Johnson, Robin StanleyVillari, GabrieleConstantin, Adrianauthorhttp://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut477754Springer eBooksPrinted edition:9783319314617https://link.springer.com/book/10.1007/978-3-319-31462-4An electronic book accessible through the World Wide Web.b1435143203-03-2209-10-18991003555239707536Nonlinear Water Waves1749138UNISALENTOle01309-10-18m@ -engsz 0001869oam 2200517 450 991070829360332120131205081522.0(CKB)4950000000093203(OCoLC)854995640(EXLCZ)99495000000009320320130805d2013 ua 0engur|||||||||||txtrdacontentcrdamediacrrdacarrierOversight of the U.S. Department of Justice hearing before the Committee on the Judiciary, United States Senate, One Hundred Twelfth Congress, second session, June 12, 2012Washington :U.S. Government Printing Office,2013.1 online resource (iii, 353 pages)S. hrg. ;112-795Title from title screen (viewed on August 5, 2013).Paper version available for sale by the Superintendent of Documents, United States Government Printing Office."Serial no.
