Abstract

We investigate an effect of the resonant interaction in the case of one-directional propagation of capillary-gravity surface waves arising as the free surface of a rotational water flow. Specifically, we assume a constant vorticity in the body of the fluid which physically corresponds to an underlying current with a linear horizontal velocity profile. We consider the interaction of three distinct modes and we obtain the dynamic equations for a resonant triad. Setting the constant vorticity equal to zero we recover the well known integrable three-wave system.
