In this paper, an analytic solution is presented using differential transform method (DTM) for a class of wave equation. The emphasis is on the nonlinear two-dimensional wave equation. The procedures introduced in this paper are in recursive forms which can be used to obtain the closed form of the solutions, if they are required. The method is tested on various examples, and the results reveal ...

We have recently shown [1] that fully-localized threedimensional wave envelopes (so-called dromions) can exist and propagate on the surface of ice-covered waters. Here we show that the inertia of the ice can play an important role in the size, direction and speed of propagation of these structures. We use multiple-scale perturbation technique to derive governing equations for the weakly nonline...

The problem of tsunami wave generation by variable meteo-conditions is discussed. The simplified linear and nonlinear shallow water models are derived, and their analytical solutions for a basin of constant depth are discussed. The shallow-water model describes well the properties of the generated tsunami waves for all regimes, except the resonance case. The nonlinear-dispersive model based on ...

In this paper, we study the properties of approximate solutions to a doubly nonlinear and degenerate diffusion equation, known in the literature as the diffusive wave approximation of the shallow water equations (DSW), using a numerical approach based on the Galerkin finite element method. This equation arises in shallow water flow models when special assumptions are used to simplify the shallo...

Aim of this study is to present robust numerical methods for shallow water equations permitting to correctly predict long water-wave phenomena. A semi-intrusive and polynomialchaos based method are coupled with a residual based distribution scheme by considering several sources of uncertainties in the simulation of a long wave runup on a conical island. Stochastic results are assessed by compar...

This paper develops a new approach in the analysis of the Camassa-Holm equation. By introducing a new set of independent and dependent variables, the equation is transformed into a semilinear system, whose solutions are obtained as fixed points of a contractive transformation. These new variables resolve all singularities due to possible wave breaking. Returning to the original variables, we ob...
