Water waves are beautiful and their mathematics is fascinating, deep, and full of amazing results. Their understanding is also of great practical importance for the design of marine structures. | |||
This wiki is devoted to the mathematics of water waves and to providing an online reference to explain all aspects of their theory. The wiki is a work in progress and strongly reflects the research interests of [[Michael Meylan]] who is doing most of work! However, you are strongly encouraged to contribute in any way you see fit (see [[Why you should contribute]]). | |||
