Generation of waves in Boussinesq models using a source function method
نویسندگان
چکیده
A method for generating waves in Boussinesq-type wave models is described. The method employs a source term added to the governing equations, either in the form of a mass source in the continuity equation or an applied pressure forcing in the momentum equations. Assuming linearity, we derive a transfer function which relates source amplitude to surface wave characteristics. We then test the model for generation of desired incident waves, including regular and random waves, for both one and two dimensions. We also compare some model results with analytical solution and available experiment data. q 1999 Elsevier Science B.V. All rights reserved.

A source function method for the generation of waves internal to Boussinesq model grid boundaries (Wei G, Kirby JT, Sinha A. Generation of waves in Boussinesq models using a source function method. Coastal Engng 1999;36:271–299) is generalized to account for the presence of a strong current, for application to wave-current interaction problems. The method is also modified to eliminate waves pro...

متن کاملMethod of Green’s Function for Characterization of SH Waves in Porous-Piezo Composite Structure with a Point Source
An approach of Green’s function is adopted to solve the inhomogeneous linear differential equations representing wave equations in piezo-composite materials. In particular, transference of horizontally polarised shear (SH) waves is considered in bedded structure comprising of porous-piezo electric layer lying over a heterogeneous half-space. Propagation of SH-waves is considered to be influence...
