Analytical solutions for forced long waves on a sloping beach

چکیده
= ∂f ∂t2 for x > 0, in which Y (x, t) denotes an unknown variable, f (x, t) a prescribed forcing function and b a positive constant. This equation has been used to describe landslidegenerated tsunamis and also long waves induced by moving atmospheric pressure distributions. We discuss particular and general solutions. We then compare our results with numerical solutions of the same equation and with the corresponding solutions of the nonlinear depth-integrated equations and discuss them in terms of landslide-generated tsunamis.

Identification of Forerunners and Transmission of Energy to Tsunami Waves Generated by Instanteneous Ground Motion on a Non-Uniformly Sloping Beach
The problem of generation and propagation of tsunami waves is mainly focused on plane beach, there are very few analytical works where wave generation is considered on non-uniformly sloping beach and as a result those works might have failed to capture important facts which are influenced by bottom-slope of the beach. Some researchers provided solution to the forced long linear waves but on a b...
متن کاملConservation Laws for Shallow Water Waves on a Sloping Beach
Shallow water waves are governed by a pair of non-linear partial differential equations. We transfer the associated homogeneous and non-homogeneous systems, (corresponding to constant and sloping depth, respectively), to the hodograph plane where we find all the non-simple wave solutions and construct infinitely many polynomial conservation laws. We also establish correspondence between conserv...
متن کاملEdge waves along a sloping beach
Standing on a gently sloping straight beach, it is a matter of observation that various waveforms propagate on the surface of the sea. Among these we find edge waves water waves that progress along the shoreline. These waves, often difficult to visualize (this has, probably, prevented the regarding of this waveform as important for a long time), are coastal trapped, i.e. their amplitude is maxi...
متن کاملSPH Model of Solitary Waves Shoaling on a Mild Sloping Beach
Shoaling of solitary waves on a uniform plane beach connected to a constant-depth wave tank is investigated numerically using the smoothed particle hydrodynamics (SPH) method. The characteristics of water surface elevations have been analyzed for wave shoaling. To test the validity of the numerical model, the relative wave heights, the time histories of the free surface profiles are measured at...
متن کاملAn Analytical Model to Predict the Response of Mounds Placed in the Offshore
PURPOSE: An analytical model to predict the response of mounds placed in the offshore is presented, with the overall aim of providing a technique for the preliminary design of mounds subjected mainly to cross-shore sediment-transport processes induced by non-breaking waves. For example, offshore mounds created from dredged material can be used to protect sandy beaches by dissipating wave energy...
