title = "WAVE AND CURRENT INTERACTIONS IN SHALLOW WATER.",
abstract = "In this paper, the interactions between currents and nonlinear shallow water waves are investigated. Boussinesq equations are used to derive evolution equations for spectral wave components. The current intensity is assumed to be larger than the leading wave orbital velocity and smaller than the group velocity. The length-scale of the current is much shorter than those assumed in the existing large-scale theories. To facilitate numerical computations, the parabolic approximation is applied and a simplified model is developed. A numerical example is given for the refraction and diffraction of cnoidal waves over a rip current on a sloping topography. Both normal and oblique incident cases are examined.",
