Many studies have been carried out over the last decades to test and improve wind-wave generation and growth models. Recent experimental works have revealed some aspects of the influence of the liquid viscosity on the mechanisms governing this growth. This PhD is part of this framework, and aims at sudying this influence by means of numerical simulations. It relies on the research code JADIM, developped at IMFT, devoted to the simulation of two-phase incompressible flows. To track the evolution of the interface, we use a \emph{Volume of Fluid} approach, and vary the liquid viscosity over two orders of magnitude. To account for turbulence in the air, we employ a RANS approach. We assume that the orbital movements of the interface are two-dim...
