Abstract
This paper describes the effect of surface tension on various nonlinear free surface flow problems. Accurate numerical solutions are presented for the flow past a bubble in a tube, the cavitating flow past a curved obstacle and gravity capillary elevation solitary waves. Each flow is characterized by a continuum of solutions when surface tension is neglected. It is shown that there is a discrete set of solutions when surface tension is taken into account.
