Book Nonlinear Water Waves

Download or read book Nonlinear Water Waves written by David Henry and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2019-11-27 with total page 218 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The motion of water is governed by a set of mathematical equations which are extremely complicated and intractable. This is not surprising when one considers the highly diverse and intricate physical phenomena which may be exhibited by a given body of water. Recent mathematical advances have enabled researchers to make major progress in this field, reflected in the topics featured in this volume. Cutting-edge techniques and tools from mathematical analysis have generated strong rigorous results concerning the qualitative and quantitative physical properties of solutions of the governing equations. Furthermore, accurate numerical computations of fully-nonlinear steady and unsteady water waves in two and three dimensions have contributed to the discovery of new types of waves. Model equations have been derived in the long-wave and modulational regime using Hamiltonian formulations and solved numerically. This book brings together interdisciplinary researchers working in the field of nonlinear water waves, whose contributions range from survey articles to new research results which address a variety of aspects in nonlinear water waves. It is motivated by a workshop which was organised at the Erwin Schrödinger International Institute for Mathematics and Physics in Vienna, November 27-December 7, 2017. The key aim of the workshop was to describe, and foster, new approaches to research in this field. This is reflected in the contents of this book, which is aimed to stimulate both experienced researchers and students alike.

Book Nonlinear Water Waves

Download or read book Nonlinear Water Waves written by Lokenath Debnath and published by Academic Press. This book was released on 1994-03-29 with total page 576 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Wave motion in water is one of the most striking observable phenomena in nature. Throughout the twentieth century, development of the linearized theory of wave motion in fluids and hydrodynamic stability has been steady and significant. In the last three decades there have been remarkable developments in nonlinear dispersive waves in general, nonlinear water waves in particular, and nonlinear instability phenomena. New solutions are now available for waves modulatedin both space and time, which exhibit new phenomena as diverse as solitons, resonant interactions, side-band instability, and wave-breaking. Other achievements include the discovery of soliton interactions, and the Inverse Scattering Transform method forfinding the explicit exact solution for several canonical nonlinear partial differential equations. This monograph is the first to summarize the research on nonlinear wave phenomena over the past three decades, and it also presents numerous applications in physics, geophysics, and engineering.

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.

Book Iterative Methods for Linear and Nonlinear Equations

Download or read book Iterative Methods for Linear and Nonlinear Equations written by C. T. Kelley and published by SIAM. This book was released on 1995-01-01 with total page 179 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Linear and nonlinear systems of equations are the basis for many, if not most, of the models of phenomena in science and engineering, and their efficient numerical solution is critical to progress in these areas. This is the first book to be published on nonlinear equations since the mid-1980s. Although it stresses recent developments in this area, such as Newton-Krylov methods, considerable material on linear equations has been incorporated. This book focuses on a small number of methods and treats them in depth. The author provides a complete analysis of the conjugate gradient and generalized minimum residual iterations as well as recent advances including Newton-Krylov methods, incorporation of inexactness and noise into the analysis, new proofs and implementations of Broyden's method, and globalization of inexact Newton methods. Examples, methods, and algorithmic choices are based on applications to infinite dimensional problems such as partial differential equations and integral equations. The analysis and proof techniques are constructed with the infinite dimensional setting in mind and the computational examples and exercises are based on the MATLAB environment.

Book Stable Three dimensional Biperiodic Waves in Shallow Water

Download or read book Stable Three dimensional Biperiodic Waves in Shallow Water written by Norman W. Scheffner and published by . This book was released on 1988 with total page 204 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Kadomtsev-Petviashvili (KP) equation is tested as a model for these biperiodic waves. This equation is the direct three-dimensional generalization of the famous Korteweg-deVries (KdV) equation for weakly nonlinear waves in two dimensions. It is known that the KP equation admits an infinite dimensional family of periodic solutions which are defined in terms of Riemann theta functions of genus N. Genus 2 solutions have two real periods and are similar in structure to the hexagonally-shaped waves observed in the experiments. A methodology is developed which related the free parameters of the genus 2 solution to the temporal and spatial data of the experimentally generated waves. Comparisons of exact genus 2 solutions with measured data show excellent agreement over the entire range of experiments.

Book Nonlinear Dynamics of Three dimensional Solitary Waves

Download or read book Nonlinear Dynamics of Three dimensional Solitary Waves written by Yeunwoo Cho and published by . This book was released on 2010 with total page 108 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In problems of dispersive wave propagation governed by two distinct restoring-force mechanisms, the phase speed of linear sinusoidal wavetrains may feature a minimum, cmin, at non-zero wavenumber, kmin. Examples include waves on the surface of a liquid in the presence of both gravity and surface tension, flexural waves on a floating ice sheet, in which case capillarity is replaced by the flexural rigidity of the ice, and internal gravity waves in layered flows in the presence of interfacial tension. The focus here is on deep-water gravity-capillary waves, where cmin = 23 cm/s with corresponding wavelength Amin = 27r/kmin = 1.71 cm. In this instance, ignoring viscous dissipation, cmin is known to be the bifurcation point of two-dimensional (plane) and three-dimensional (fully localized) solitary waves, often referred to as "lumps"; these are nonlinear disturbances that propagate at speeds below cmin without change of shape owing to a perfect balance between the opposing effects of wave dispersion and nonlinear steepening. Moreover, Cmin is a critical forcing speed, as the linear inviscid response to external forcing moving at Cmin grows unbounded in time, and nonlinear effects as well as viscous dissipation are expected to play important parts near this resonance. In the present thesis, various aspects of the dynamics of gravity-capillary lumps are investigated theoretically. Specifically, it is shown that steep gravity-capillary lumps of depression can propagate stably and they are prominent nonlinear features of the forced response near resonant conditions, in agreement with companion experiment for the generation of gravity-capillary lumps on deep water. These findings are relevant to the generation of ripples by wind and to the wave drag associated with the motion of small bodies on a free surface.
