In this work we establish the existence of at least one weak periodic solution in the spatial directions of a nonlinear system of two coupled differential equations associated with a 2D Boussinesq model which describes the evolution of long water waves with small amplitude under the effect of surface tension. For wave speed $0 < |c| < 1$, the problem is reduced to finding a minimum for the corresponding action integral over a closed convex subset of the space $H^{1}_k(\mathbb{R})$ ($k$-periodic functions $f∈ L_k^2(\mathbb{R})$ such that $f' ∈ L_k^2(\mathbb{R})$). For wave speed $|c|>1$, the result is a direct consequence of the Lyapunov Center Theorem since the nonlinear system can be rewritten as a $4× 4$ system with a special Hamiltonian structure. In the case $|c|>1$, we also compute numerical approximations of these travelling waves by using a Fourier spectral discretization of the corresponding 1D travelling wave equations and a Newton-type iteration.

Keywords: Periodic travelling waves, variational methods, pseudo-spectral methods, Lyapunov Center Theorem.
