This book was released on 2018-10-10 with total page 40 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Solitary Wave and Periodic Waves in Shallow Water Numbers in square brackets refer to the bibliography at the end of the article. The theory given by Boussinesq involves a number of phys ical assumptions in addition to those of the basic hydro dynamical theory; it also leads to a differential equa tion for the wave profile. Both of these methods assume that the depth of the water is small compared to some horizontal dimension, and they might be interpreted as developments of the whole problem in powers of the ratio of the depth to some horizontal dimension, such as wave length. However, because these procedures are so unsys tematic, it is not clear that they are equivalent to such developments, nor to what order of approximation the so lutions obtained are valid. The method of proceeding to higher approximations is also obscure. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Book Multi Periodic Waves in Shallow Water

Download or read book Multi Periodic Waves in Shallow Water written by and published by . This book was released on 1992 with total page 4 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Nonlinear ocean waves with two-dimensional surface patterns in shallow water are studied analytically and experimentally. The analytical model is a family of periodic solutions of the Kadomtsev-Petviashuili equation. The experiments demonstrate the accuracy of these solutions. When these two- dimensional waves shoal on a planar beach, they quickly generate an array of periodic rip currents. Mach reflections of cnoidal waves are also modelled by these KP solutions. Ocean waves, Two-dimensional, Nonlinear, Rip currents.

Book An Analytical Model of Periodic Waves in Shallow Water   Summary

Download or read book An Analytical Model of Periodic Waves in Shallow Water Summary written by H. Segur and published by . This book was released on 1984 with total page 74 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: An explicit, analytical model is presented of finite amplitude waves in shallow water. The waves in question have two independent spatial periods, in two independent horizontal directions. Both short-crested and long-crested waves are available from the model. Every wave pattern is an exact solution of the Kadomtsev-Petviashvili equation, and is based on a Riemann theta function of genus 2. These bi-periodic waves are direct generalizations of the well-known (simply periodic) cnoidal waves. Just as cnoidal waves are often used as one-dimensional models of typical nonlinear, periodic waves in shallow water, these bi-periodic waves may be considered to represent typical nonlinear, periodic waves in shallow water without the assumption of one-dimensionality.

Book Nonlinear Periodic Waves and Their Modulations

Download or read book Nonlinear Periodic Waves and Their Modulations written by Anatoli? Mikha?lovich Kamchatnov and published by World Scientific. This book was released on 2000 with total page 399 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Although the mathematical theory of nonlinear waves and solitons has made great progress, its applications to concrete physical problems are rather poor, especially when compared with the classical theory of linear dispersive waves and nonlinear fluid motion. The Whitham method, which describes the combining action of the dispersive and nonlinear effects as modulations of periodic waves, is not widely used by applied mathematicians and physicists, though it provides a direct and natural way to treat various problems in nonlinear wave theory. Therefore it is topical to describe recent developments of the Whitham theory in a clear and simple form suitable for applications in various branches of physics.This book develops the techniques of the theory of nonlinear periodic waves at elementary level and in great pedagogical detail. It provides an introduction to a Whitham's theory of modulation in a form suitable for applications. The exposition is based on a thorough analysis of representative examples taken from fluid mechanics, nonlinear optics and plasma physics rather than on the formulation and study of a mathematical theory. Much attention is paid to physical motivations of the mathematical methods developed in the book. The main applications considered include the theory of collisionless shock waves in dispersive systems and the nonlinear theory of soliton formation in modulationally unstable systems. Exercises are provided to amplify the discussion of important topics such as singular perturbation theory, Riemann invariants, the finite gap integration method, and Whitham equations and their solutions.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book contains lecture notes and invited contributions presented at the NATO Advanced Study Institute and EPS Liquid State Conference on PHYSICOCHEMICAL HYDRODYNAMICS-PCH: INTERFACIAL PHENOMENA that were held July 1-15, 1986, in LA RABIDA (Huelva) SPAIN. Although we are aware of the difficulty in organizing the contents due to the broad and multidisciplinary aspects of PCH-Interfacial Phenomena, we have tried to accomodate papers by topics and have not followed the order in the presentation at the meetings. There is also no distinction between the ASI notes and Conference papers. We have done our best to offer a coverage as complete as possible of the field. However, we had difficulties coming from the fact that some authors were so busy that either did not find time to submit their contribution or did not have time to write a comprehensive paper. We also had to cope with very late arrivals, postdeadline valuable contributions that we felt had to be included here. Our gratitude goes to the NATO Scientific Affairs Division for its economic support and to the EPS Liquid State Committee for its sponsorship. Financial support also came from Asociacion Industrias Quimicas-Huelva (Spain), Caycit-Ministerio De Educacion Y Ciencia (Spain), Canon-Espana (Spain), Citibank-Espana (Spain), CNLS-Los Alamos Nat.

Book 3D Modeling of Nonlinear Wave Phenomena on Shallow Water Surfaces

Download or read book 3D Modeling of Nonlinear Wave Phenomena on Shallow Water Surfaces written by Iftikhar B. Abbasov and published by John Wiley & Sons. This book was released on 2018-01-31 with total page 276 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: With climate change, erosion, and human encroachment on coastal environments growing all over the world, it is increasingly important to protect populations and environments close to the sea from storms, tsunamis, and other events that can be not just costly to property but deadly. This book is one step in bringing the science of protection from these events forward, the most in-depth study of its kind ever published. The analytic and numerical modeling problems of nonlinear wave activities in shallow water are analyzed in this work. Using the author's unique method described herein, the equations of shallow water are solved, and asymmetries that cannot be described by the Stokes theory are solved. Based on analytical expressions, the impacts of dispersion effects to wave profiles transformation are taken into account. The 3D models of the distribution and refraction of nonlinear surface gravity wave at the various coast formations are introduced, as well. The work covers the problems of numerical simulation of the run-up of nonlinear surface gravity waves in shallow water, transformation of the surface waves for the 1D case, and models for the refraction of numerical modeling of the run-up of nonlinear surface gravity waves at beach approach of various slopes. 2D and 3D modeling of nonlinear surface gravity waves are based on Navier-Stokes equations. In 2D modeling the influence of the bottom of the coastal zone on flooding of the coastal zone during storm surges was investigated. Various stages of the run-up of nonlinear surface gravity waves are introduced and analyzed. The 3D modeling process of the run-up is tested for the coast protection work of the slope type construction. Useful for students and veteran engineers and scientists alike, this is the only book covering these important issues facing anyone working with coastal models and ocean, coastal, and civil engineering in this area.
