Water Waves: The Mathematical Theory With Applications
by J. J. Stoker
Publisher: Interscience Publishers 1957
ISBN/ASIN: B0000CJV8X
Number of pages: 609
Description:
Offers an integrated account of the mathematical hypothesis of wave motion in liquids with a free surface, subjected to gravitational and other forces. Uses both potential and linear wave equation theories, together with applications such as the Laplace and Fourier transform methods, conformal mapping and complex variable techniques in general or integral equations, methods employing a Green's function.

Wavesby C. A. Coulson - Oliver And Boyd
The object of this book is to consider from an elementary standpoint as many different types of wave motion as possible. In almost every case the fundamental problem is the same, since it consists in solving the standard equation of wave motion.
