Wave-Generated Current: A Second-Order Formulation

In Stokes’ wave theory, wave numbers are corrected in the third order solution. A change in wave number is also associated with a change in current velocity. Here, it will be argued that the current is the reason for the wave number correction, and that wave-generated current at the mean free surfac...
