The classical theory of water waves is based on the theory of inviscid flows. However it is important to include viscous effects in some applications. Two models are proposed to add dissipative effects in the context of the Boussinesq equations, which include the effects of weak dispersion and nonlinearity in a shallow water framework. The dissipative Boussinesq equations are then integrated nu...

We establish global existence and uniqueness theorems for the two-dimensional non-diffusive Boussinesq system with viscosity only in the horizontal direction, which arises in Ocean dynamics. This work improves the global well-posedness results established recently by R. Danchin and M. Paicu for the Boussinesq system with anisotropic viscosity and zero diffusion. Although we follow some of their...

ABSTRACT In this paper, we have been acquired the soliton solutions of the Variant Boussinesq equations. Primarily, we have used the enhanced (G'/G)-expansion method to find exact solutions of Variant Boussinesq equations. Then, we attain some exact solutions including soliton solutions, hyperbolic and trigonometric function solutions of this equation. MATHEMATICS SUBJECT CLASSIFICATION 35 K9...

The gravity-driven film flow has been analyzed along a vertical wall subjected to a convective boundary condition. The Boussinesq approximation is applied to simplify the buoyancy term, and similarity transformations are used on the mathematical model of the problem under consideration, to obtain a set of coupled ordinary differential equations. Then the reduced equations are solved explicitly ...

Consideration is given to the influence of an underwater landslide on waves at the surface of a shallow body of fluid. The equations of motion which govern the evolution of the barycenter of the landslide mass include various dissipative effects due to bottom friction, internal energy dissipation, and viscous drag. The surface waves are studied in the Boussinesq scaling, with time-dependent bat...

In this paper we further improve the modified extended tanh-function method to obtain new exact solutions for nonlinear partial differential equations. Numerical applications of the proposed method are verified by solving the improved Boussinesq equation and the system of variant Boussinesq equations. The new exact solutions for these equations include Jacobi elliptic doubly periodic type, Weie...

A class of model equations that describe the bi-directional propagation of small amplitude long waves on the surface of shallow water is derived from two-dimensional potential flow equations at various orders of approximation in two small parameters, namely the amplitude parameter a 1⁄4 a=h0 and wavelength parameter b 1⁄4 ðh0=lÞ2, where a and l are the actual amplitude and wavelength of the sur...

A coupled Boussinesq-boundary integral method is developed to simulate nonlinear water wave interaction with structures consisting of multiple layers with different physical and hydraulic characteristics. The flow field in the water region is modeled with a modified set of Boussinesq-type equations, with additional terms to account for the flow of water into/out of the porous region. The equati...
