contents In this paper, we investigate the modulational stability of periodic traveling waves in a local model for shallow water waves, which is an extended version of the Hunter-Saxton equation. We construct a family of small-amplitude periodic traveling waves for this local model and provide a parameterization of these waves. Using Floquet-Bloch theory, perturbation theory, and spectral analysis, we then establish the modulational stability of these background periodic traveling wave solutions. Finally, we analyze the modulational instability of another extended Hunter-Saxton equation with cubic nonlinearities, following a similar approach.
