Wave-induced longitudinal vortices in a shallow current

An instability theory is presented for the initiation of longitudinal vortices due to waves interacting with a turbulent current in an open channel of finite depth. With a simple model of eddy viscosity the dimensionless shearing rate of the basic current is much weaker than the dimensionless veloci...
