New asymptotic description of nonlinear water waves in Lagrangian coordinates

Abstract:: A new description of two-dimensional continuous free-surface flows in Lagrangian coordinates is proposed. It is shown that the position of a fluid particle in such flows can be represented as a fixed point of a transformation in ℝ2. Components of the transformation function satisfy the linear Euler-type continuity equation and can be expressed via a single function analogous to an Eulerian stream function. Fixed-point iterations lead to a simple recursive representation of a solution satisfyi...
