Abstract:
The study of surface gravity waves is crucial for understanding the formation of rogue waves and whitecaps in ocean swell. Waves originating from the epicenter of a storm can often be approximated as unidirectional. In this presentation, we will explore periodic traveling waves on the free surface of an ideal, infinitely deep, two-dimensional fluid. We will focus on surface waves of permanent shape, and present new families of Stokes waves with two crests per wavelength.
Bio: Dr. Semenova has earned her PhD in Applied Mathematics from the University of New Mexico in 2020. Following her PhD, she held postdoctoral appointments at the Institute for Computational and Experimental Research in Mathematics (ICERM) at Brown University and at the University of Washington. She also had PIMS-Simons Postdoctoral Fellowship before joining Rochester Institute of Technology. Dr. Semenova’s research encompasses scientific computations and mathematical physics with an emphasis on nonlinear wave phenomena. Her research includes development of efficient numerical algorithms for simulations of complex physical systems such as those arising in fluid dynamics.
