Variational water wave model -with accurate dispersion and vertical vorticity
A new water-wave model has been derived which is based on variational techniques and combines a depth-averaged vertical (component of) vorticity with depth-dependent potential flow. The model facilitates the further restriction of the vertical profile of the velocity potential to n-th order polynomials or a finite-element profile with a small number of elements (say), leading to a framework for...
متن کاملDispersion relation for water waves with non-constant vorticity
We derive the dispersion relation for linearized small-amplitude gravity waves for various choices of non-constant vorticity. To the best of our knowledge, this relation is only known explicitly in the case of constant vorticity. We provide a wide range of examples including polynomial, exponential, trigonometric and hyperbolic vorticity functions.
متن کاملScattering of dislocated wave fronts by vertical vorticity and the Aharonov-Bohm effect. I. Shallow water.
When a surface wave interacts with a vertical vortex in shallow water the latter induces a dislocation in the incident wave fronts that is analogous to what happens in the Aharonov-Bohm effect for the scattering of electrons by a confined magnetic field. In addition to this global similarity between these two physical systems there is scattering. This paper reports a detailed calculation of thi...
متن کاملAn accurate model of wave refraction over shallow water
A computer model of wave refraction is desirable, in the context of landscape modeling, to generate the familiar wave patterns seen near coastlines. In this article, we present a new method for the calculation of shallow water wave refraction. The method is more accurate than previously existing methods and provides realistic wave refraction effects. We resort to Fermat’s principle of the short...
متن کاملExplicit Solutions for a Long-Wave Model with Constant Vorticity
Explicit parametric solutions are found for a nonlinear long-wave model describing steady surface waves propagating on an inviscid fluid of finite depth in the presence of a linear shear current. The exact solutions, along with an explicit parametric form of the pressure and streamfunction give a complete description of the shape of the free surface and the flow in the bulk of the fluid. The ex...
