In this paper we consider the solution of the enhanced Boussinesq equations of Madsen and Sørensen (Coast.Eng. 18, 1992) by means of residual based discretizations. In particular, we investigate the applicability of upwind and stabilized variants of the Residual Distribution and Galerkin finite element schemes for the simulation of wave propagation and transformation over complex bathymetries. ...

This paper focuses on the 2D incompressible Boussinesq equations with fractional dissipation, given by Λαu in the velocity equation and by Λβθ in the temperature equation, where Λ= √−Δ denotes the Zygmund operator. Due to the vortex stretching and the lack of sufficient dissipation, the global regularity problem for the supercritical regime α+β<1 remains an outstanding problem. This paper prese...

Considered here are Boussinesq systems of equations of surface water wave theory over a variable bottom. A simplified such Boussinesq system is derived and solved numerically by the standard Galerkin-finite element method. We study by numerical means the generation of tsunami waves due to bottom deformation and we compare the results with analytical solutions of the linearized Euler equations. ...

Undular bores and shocks generated by dam-break flows or tsunamis are examined considering nonhydrostatic pressure and dispersive effects in oneand two-horizontal-dimensional space. The fully nonlinear Boussinesq-type equations based on a weakly nonhydrostatic pressure assumption are chosen as the governing equations. The equation set is solved by a fourth-order accurate finite-volume method wi...

this paper modeled heating air of a room through examining free convection in a 3d chamber. the chamber had cold and hot sources with tc and th temperatures, respectively. its other walls were adiabatic. this study aimed at predicting effect of temperature difference, displacement of hot and cold sources and their aspect ratio on flow field, temperature and heat transfer rate. to conduct the st...
