Asymptotic behaviors of internal waves
Journées équations aux dérivées partielles (2008), article no. 5, 17 p.

We present here a systematic method of derivation of asymptotic models for internal waves, that is, for the propagation of waves at the interface of two fluids of different densities. Many physical regimes are investigated, depending on the physical parameters (depth of the fluids, amplitude and wavelength of the interface deformations). This systematic method allows us to recover the many models existing in the literature and to derive some new models, in particular in the case of large amplitude internal waves and two-dimensional interfaces. We also provide rigorous consistency results for these models. We refer to [5] for full details.
