Abstract
By a modulational analysis, we derive a Benney–Roskes type asymptotic model to the water wave equation with surface tension. In contrast to the classical Benney–Roskes system, this model preserves – at least for high frequencies – the dispersion relation of the full water wave equations. The formal derivation of the model is completed by some considerations on its consistency with the water wave equations.
