Rectangular standing surface-gravity mode

In a rectangular box with Neumann side walls, a horizontal modehas horizontal wavenumber $k=[(m\pi /L_x{)}^2+(n\pi /L_y{)}^2{]}^{1/2}$, depth dependence $e^{kz}$ in infinitely deep fluid, and natural frequency $\Omega =\sqrt{gk}$.

Pressure forcing of one rectangular free-surface mode reduces its amplitude toAt $\omega =\sqrt{gk}$, the inviscid undamped response contains $t\sin (\omega t)$ and grows without bound in the linear model.
