Breaking criterion and characteristics for solitary waves on slopes
Shoaling and breaking of solitary waves is computed on slopes 1:100 to 1:8 using an experimentally validated fully nonlinear wave model based on potential flow equations. Characteristics of waves are computed at and beyond the breaking point, and geometric self-similarities of breakers are discussed as a function of wave height and bottom slope. No wave breaks for slopes steeper than 12 . A bre...
متن کاملInternal waves and temperature fronts on slopes
Time series measurements from an array of temperature miniloggers in a line at constant depth along the sloping boundary of a lake are used to describe the `internal surf zone' where internal waves interact with the sloping boundary. More small positive temperature time derivatives are recorded than negative, but there are more large negative values than positive, giving the overall distributio...
متن کاملSolitary waves on a shelf
or equal to Pc > U(O)*‘, where U(O)* ’ IS the propagation speed of shallow-water waves and Ue is determined by Eq. ( 12). The solitary wave is found by solving a forced Korteweg-de Vries equation. The amplitude of the solitary wave is proportional to the upstream velocity and the downstream elevation is inversely proportional to the upstream velocity. A second branch of solutions of the forced ...
متن کاملSolitary Waves of Depression
It is shown that the regularized long-wave equation admits a family of solitary waves of depression. Some of these solitary waves are stable while others are unstable. The proof of stability and instability is based on the general theory of Grillakis, Shatah and Strauss. The results are illustrated by numerical simulation using a spectral discretization.
متن کاملInvestigating the Amount of Forces Caused by Solitary Waves on Coastal Walls Using OpenFOAM Software
Coastal walls (dyke) are one of the methods of protecting the coast against coastal erosion and destructive forces of waves. The purpose of this study is to simulate the wave collision with the coastal dyke and compare the results with the laboratory model. Open FOAM open source software and K-ω SST turbulence model were used to simulate the amount of wave consumed by the coastal dyke. Taking i...
