Stability of Solitary Waves of a Fifth-Order Water Wave Model

چکیده

We consider the stability of solitary waves of a class of 5th order KdV equations. It is known that their stability is determined by the second derivative of a function of the wave speed d(c). We perform a detailed investigation of the properties of this function, both analytically and numerically. For a class of homogeneous nonlinearities, we precisely determine the regions of wave speeds for which the solitary waves are stable or unstable.

Dynamics of Bright Solitary-waves in a General Fifth-order Shallow Water-wave Model

New analytic sech2-type traveling solitary-wave solutions, satisfying zero background at infinity, of a general fifth-order shallow water-wave model are found and compared with previously obtained non-zero background solutions. The allowed coefficient regions for the solitary-wave solutions are classified by requiring the wave number and angular frequency to be real. Detailed numerical simulati...

Dynamics of Three-Dimensional Gravity-Capillary Solitary Waves in Deep Water

A model equation for gravity-capillary waves in deep water is proposed. This model is a quadratic approximation of the deep water potential flow equations and has wavepacket-type solitary wave solutions. The model equation supports line solitary waves which are spatially localized in the direction of propagation and constant in the transverse direction, and lump solitary waves which are spatial...

A global investigation of solitary-wave solutions to a two-parameter model for water waves

arises as the equation for solitary-wave solutions to a fifth-order long-wave equation for gravitycapillary water waves. Being Hamiltonian, reversible and depending upon two parameters, it shares the structure of the full steady water-wave problem. Moreover, all known analytical results for local bifurcations of solitary-wave solutions to the full water-wave problem have precise counterparts fo...

Solitary wave Solutions of a fifth order model equation for steady capillary-gravity waves over a bump with the Bond number near 1/3

The objective of this paper is to study the existence of solitary wave solutions of a fifth order model equation for steady capillary-gravity waves over a bump with the Bond number near 1/3. We proved that there exist solitary wave solutions of the model equation for a sufficiently smooth compact bump. Key-Words: Steady capillary-gravity wave, Solitary wave solution, Compact bump.

High-Order Interaction of Solitary Waves on Shallow Water

The interaction of solitary waves on shallow water is examined to fourth order. At first order the interaction is governed by the Korteweg–de Vries (KdV) equation, and it is shown that the unidirectional assumption, of right-moving waves only, is incompatible with mass conservation at third order. To resolve this, a mass conserving system of KdV equations, involving both rightand left-moving wa...
