An operator expansion method for computing nonlinear surface waves on a ferrofluid jet
We present a new numerical method to simulate the time evolution of axisymmetric nonlinear waves on the surface of a ferrofluid jet. It is based on the reduction of this problem to a lower-dimensional computation involving surface variables alone. To do so, we describe the associated Dirichlet–Neumann operator in terms of a Taylor series expansion where each term can be efficiently computed by ...
متن کاملSolitary waves on a shelf
or equal to Pc > U(O)*‘, where U(O)* ’ IS the propagation speed of shallow-water waves and Ue is determined by Eq. ( 12). The solitary wave is found by solving a forced Korteweg-de Vries equation. The amplitude of the solitary wave is proportional to the upstream velocity and the downstream elevation is inversely proportional to the upstream velocity. A second branch of solutions of the forced ...
متن کاملShoaling internal solitary waves
[1] The evolution and breaking of internal solitary waves in a shallow upper layer as they approach a constant bottom slope is examined through laboratory experiments. The waves are launched in a two-layer fluid through the standard lock-release method. In most experiments, the wave amplitude is significantly larger than the depth of the shallow upper layer so that they are not well described b...
متن کاملSolitary Waves of Depression
It is shown that the regularized long-wave equation admits a family of solitary waves of depression. Some of these solitary waves are stable while others are unstable. The proof of stability and instability is based on the general theory of Grillakis, Shatah and Strauss. The results are illustrated by numerical simulation using a spectral discretization.
متن کاملSolitary dynamo waves
Long dynamo waves are a characteristic feature of interface dynamo models with spatially localized α and Ω effects. The evolution of such waves is described by the modified Korteweg–de Vries equation. Solutions to this equation take the form of solitary waves, breathers, and snoidal and cnoidal waves, and represent nonlinear waves of magnetic activity that migrate towards the equator, as observ...
