A priori estimates for water waves with emerging bottom
  We study the beach problem for water waves. The case we consider is a compact fluid domain, where the free surface intersect the bottom along an edge, with a non-zero contact angle. Using elliptic estimates in domain with edges and a new equation on the Taylor coefficient, we establish a priori estimates, for angles smaller than a dimensional constant. Local existence will be derived in a following paper.
