1 The sym O indicates the \order" of a term whose exact form is usually unspecied.
Additionally, there is a limit implied in the use of O. Specically, a term f(x) is O(g(x))
as x ! x0 if the ratio f(x)=g(x) approaches a nite non-zero value as x ! x0. Thus,
sin x is O(x) as x ! 0. This is written sin x = O(x), with the limit usually understood
from the context. Factors are typically omitted. Thus, a function f(x) = 3x2 is written
f(x) = O(x2 ).

Theorem (First Form of Maximum Principle) If is
harmonic in a bounded domain G and is continuous in G (the
domain G plus its boundary @G), then the maximum of is
attained at one or more points on the boundary of G.
Proof
Assume the maximum of is not attained on the boundary.
Then the maximum must occur in the interior. Call this point
Q. For some suciently small positive and some arbitrary
x-coordinate x0, the function
^ = + (x x0 )2

in a
uid of depth h.
It was previously shown that the corresponding velocity
potential is
c2 = kg tanh kh
sin i = i sinh
cos i = cosh
F (z; t) = c csch kh [cos ikh cos k(z ct) sin ikh sin k(z ct)]
= c csch kh cos k(z ct + ih)
Fluid Dynamics II Copyright
c D. Knight 1997 122
and hence
dzp = dF
dt dz
The previous expression for the complex potential may be
dierentiated to yield
dzp = kc csch kh sin k(z ct + ih)
dt
The interpretation of the terms on the right side is important.
At any instant of time, the complex coordinate z on the right
side is the location of the particle, thus the equation is
interpreted as
dzp = kc csch kh sin k(z ct + ih)
p
dt
Assuming small waves (i.e., k 1), the location zp of the
particle may be assumed to vary only slightly in time.
Thus, the coordinate zp is assumed approximately constant in
the right side, and integrating
zp(t) zp(to) = csch kh [cos k(z ct + ih) cos k(zp(to) cto + ih)]
and
zp(t) A = csch kh cos k(z ct + ih)
Fluid Dynamics II Copyright
c D. Knight 1997 124
where
A = zp (to) csch kh cos k(zp(to) cto + ih)
Now the temporal mean value of the right side is zero,
Z
0
csch kh cos k(z ct + ih) dt = 0
where 2=! is the period of the travelling wave.
Dening
zp zp(t) A
it is evident that zp represents the complex conjugate of the
deviation of the particle from its average position.
It is therefore evident that
zp =
F (z )
c
and hence
xp = + cos k(x ct) [sinh ky + coth kh cosh ky]
yp = sin k(x ct) [cosh ky + coth kh sinh ky]

Thus,

rp = csch kh cos !t cos2 kx cosh2 k(y + h) + sin2 kx sinh2 k(y + h)
p = tan 1 ftan kx tanh k(y + h)g
and thus

All previous waveforms in innite domains have been innite
wavetrains with periodic structure.
The solitary wave is a traveling wave of permanent form with a
single crest.
Consider a two-dimensional, irrotational
ow of a
uid of
uniform density.
Assume there exists a steady traveling wave of permanent form
moving with velocity c in the x-direction over a
uid of depth
h at innity.
The x y coordinate system is attached to the wave, with
y = 0 representing the (impermeable) lower boundary, and
x=0
corresponding to the wave crest.
The complex potential is

Thus,

F (z ) = F (x) + F (x) (iy ) n

Furthermore,
@F = @ + i @ = @

evaluating at y = 0,
@F (z ) = @F (x)

Thus, the real and imaginary parts of the Taylor series may be

Discussion
The governing equations and boundary conditions represent a
Sturm-Liouville-B^ocher system.
The eigenvalues of the wavenumber k are determined in solving
the governing equations with specied frequency kc and
mean density prole (y).
Solutions are usually obtained numerically, although important
general results may be derived analytically.
Maximum Frequency with Rigid Boundaries
Consider internal waves in a stratied
uid with rigid lower
and upper boundaries.
It is evident that if f (y) is a solution, then f (y) is also a
solution. Thus, it may be assumed that df=dy > 0 at y = 0
with no loss of generality.
2 Is it possible that df =dy = 0 at y = 0 ?

Assume

Then, as y increases from y = 0, equation (8) implies that
df (y)=dy is always positive, and thus f (y) > 0 for y > 0.
Hence, the upper boundary condition f (h) = 0 cannot be

Now

@xi = 0
Also, the term xj @ 2=@xi @xk is symmetric in i and k, and
thus its product with ijk is zero.

The magnitude of the maximum pressure can be signicant.
For example, consider U = 30 ft/s, = 8 10 4 lbf-sec/ft2,
l = 4 in, hm = 0:008 in. This yields pmax = 41:7 lbf/in2.

Consider slow viscous
ow between parallel plates separated by
a distance 2h. An obstacle (e.g., a cylinder) is placed between
the plates. The x y plane is parallel to the plates and
midway between the plates.
The velocity prole far upstream of the obstacle corresponds to

Explanation
Substitution of the solution into conservation of mass yields
@ u^ + @ v^ = 0
@x @y
Substitution into the x momentum equation yields
@ 2u^ + @ 2u^ = 0
@x2 @y2
and likewise into the y momentum equation yields
@ 2v^ + @ 2v^ = 0
@x2 @y2
where the continuity equation @ u^=@x + @ v^=@y = 0 has been
used.
Thus, u^(x; y) and v^(x; y) represent the planar velocity eld
obtained from a 2-D potential
ow.

The fundamental units are length, mass, time and temperature.
For the above equation, the number of variables is n = 8.
Similarly, the number of fundamental units is m = 3 (i.e.,
mass, length and time).

Insofar as the driven gas is concerned, the contact surface is
