Efficient Computation of Steady Solitary Gravity Waves
نویسندگان
چکیده
An efficient numerical method to compute solitary wave solutions to the free surface Euler equations is reported. It is based on the conformal mapping technique combined with an efficient Fourier pseudo-spectral method. The resulting nonlinear equation is solved via the Petviashvili iterative scheme. The computational results are compared to some existing approaches, such as Tanaka’s method and Fenton’s high-order asymptotic expansion. Several important integral quantities are computed for a large range of amplitudes. The integral representation of the velocity and acceleration fields in the bulk of the fluid is also provided.

In this short note, we present an easy to implement and fast algorithm for the computation of the steady solitary gravity wave solution of the free surface Euler equations in irrotational motion. First, the problem is reformulated in a fixed domain using the conformal mapping technique. Second, the problem is reduced to a single equation for the free surface. Third, this equation is solved usin...
متن کاملAlgebraic method for constructing singular steady solitary waves: A case study
This article describes the use of algebraic methods in a phase plane analysis of ordinary differential equations. The method is illustrated by the study of capillary-gravity steady surface waves propagating in shallow water. We consider the (fully nonlinear, weakly dispersive) Serre–Green–Naghdi equations with surface tension, because it provides a tractable model that, in the same time, is not...

Multilump gravity-capillary solitary waves propagating in a fluid of infinite depth are computed numerically. The study is based on a weakly nonlinear and dispersive partial differential equation (PDE) with weak variations in the spanwise direction, a model derived by Akers and Milewski [Stud. Appl. Math., 122 (2009), pp. 249–274]. For a two-dimensional fluid, this model agrees qualitatively we...
