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.

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.

Download or read book Lectures on the Theory of Water Waves written by Thomas J. Bridges and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 2016-02-04 with total page 299 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the summer of 2014 leading experts in the theory of water waves gathered at the Newton Institute for Mathematical Sciences in Cambridge for four weeks of research interaction. A cross-section of those experts was invited to give introductory-level talks on active topics. This book is a compilation of those talks and illustrates the diversity, intensity, and progress of current research in this area. The key themes that emerge are numerical methods for analysis, stability and simulation of water waves, transform methods, rigorous analysis of model equations, three-dimensionality of water waves, variational principles, shallow water hydrodynamics, the role of deterministic and random bottom topography, and modulation equations. This book is an ideal introduction for PhD students and researchers looking for a research project. It may also be used as a supplementary text for advanced courses in mathematics or fluid dynamics.
Download or read book Symmetry Phase Modulation and Nonlinear Waves written by Thomas J. Bridges and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 2017-07-03 with total page 240 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Nonlinear waves are pervasive in nature, but are often elusive when they are modelled and analysed. This book develops a natural approach to the problem based on phase modulation. It is both an elaboration of the use of phase modulation for the study of nonlinear waves and a compendium of background results in mathematics, such as Hamiltonian systems, symplectic geometry, conservation laws, Noether theory, Lagrangian field theory and analysis, all of which combine to generate the new theory of phase modulation. While the build-up of theory can be intensive, the resulting emergent partial differential equations are relatively simple. A key outcome of the theory is that the coefficients in the emergent modulation equations are universal and easy to calculate. This book gives several examples of the implications in the theory of fluid mechanics and points to a wide range of new applications.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This volume contains the proceedings of the AMS Special Session on Nonlinear Waves and Integrable Systems, held on April 13-14, 2013, at the University of Colorado, Boulder, Colorado. The field of nonlinear waves is an exciting area of modern mathematical research that also plays a major role in many application areas from physics and fluids. The articles in this volume present a diverse cross section of topics from this field including work on the Inverse Scattering Transform, scattering theory, inverse problems, numerical methods for dispersive wave equations, and analytic and computational methods for free boundary problems. Significant attention to applications is also given throughout the articles with an extensive presentation on new results in the free surface problem in fluids. This volume will be useful to students and researchers interested in learning current techniques in studying nonlinear dispersive systems from both the integrable systems and computational points of view.

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.
