Abstract

The nonlinear dynamics of nonlinear modulated cross-waves of resonant frequency ω1 and carrier frequency ω ≈ ω1 is investigated. In a long channel of width b, that contains fluid of depth d and which is subjected to a vertical oscillation of frequency 2ω, the wave can appear in solitary form. As has been shown previously, the solitary wave is only stable in a certain parameter regime; depending on damping and driving amplitudes the wave becomes unstable. The nonlinear development of the instabilities of solitary waves is the central problem of this paper. It is shown how instabilities are saturated following generic routes to chaos in time with spatially coherent structures. Finally, the case of time-modulated driving amplitudes is also considered. In most cases it appears that nonlinear waves of simple spatial structures take part in the nonlinear dynamics, but a few cases of spatial chaos are also reported.
