Traveling wave solutions to the free boundary incompressible Navier-Stokes equations with Navier boundary conditions.

In this paper we study traveling wave solutions to the free boundary incompressible Navier-Stokes system with generalized Navier-slip conditions. The fluid is assumed to occupy a horizontally infinite strip-like domain that is bounded below by a flat rigid surface and above by a moving surface. We assume that the fluid is acted upon by a bulk force and a surface stress that are stationary in a coordinate system moving parallel to the fluid bottom, and a uniform gravitational force that is perpendicular to the flat rigid surface. We construct our solutions via an implicit function argument, and show that as the slip parameter shrinks to zero, the Navier-slip solutions converge to solutions to the no-slip problem obtained previously.
