Abstract
We consider the steady free surface two-dimensional flow due to a localized applied pressure distribution under the effects of both gravity and surface tension in water of a constant depth, and in the presence of a uniform stream. The fluid is assumed to be inviscid and incompressible, and the flow is irrotational. The behaviour of the forced nonlinear waves is characterized by three parameters: the Froude number, F, the Bond number, τ<1/3, and the magnitude and sign of the pressure forcing term ε. The fully nonlinear wave problem is solved numerically by using a boundary integral method. For small amplitude waves and F
