Energetics of internal solitary waves in a background sheared current [PDF]

open access: yesNonlinear Processes in Geophysics, 2010
The energetics of internal waves in the presence of a background sheared current is explored via numerical simulations for four different situations based on oceanographic conditions: the nonlinear interaction of two internal solitary waves; an internal ...

Multimodal structure of baroclinic tides in the South China Sea [PDF]

open access: yesNonlinear Processes in Geophysics, 2010
The modelling of baroclinic tides generated in the northern South China Sea is studied using a fully-nonlinear non-hydrostatic numerical model. The focus of the modelling efforts was on the vertical structure of internal waves in the vicinity of the ...

Experimental study of long nonlinear internal waves in rotating fluid [PDF]

open access: yesAnnales Geophysicae, 1994
Experiments were performed on the rotating platform 14 m in diameter equipped with a simple internal wave generator. Internal waves were generated for a wide range of Coriolis parameters.

Transformation of internal solitary waves at the "deep" and "shallow" shelf: satellite observations and laboratory experiment [PDF]

open access: yesNonlinear Processes in Geophysics, 2013
An interaction of internal solitary waves with the shelf edge in the time periods related to the presence of a pronounced seasonal pycnocline in the Red Sea and in the Alboran Sea is analysed via satellite photos and SAR images.

The effect of strong shear on internal solitary-like waves [PDF]

open access: yesNonlinear Processes in Geophysics, 2021
Large-amplitude internal waves in the ocean propagate in a dynamic, highly variable environment with changes in background current, local depth, and stratification. The Dubreil–Jacotin–Long, or DJL, theory of exact internal solitary waves can account for

Experimental study of internal solitary wave loads on the semi-submersible platform

open access: yesInternational Journal of Naval Architecture and Ocean Engineering, 2021
A prediction method, based on the Morison equation as well as Froude-Krylov formula, is presented to simulate the loads acting on the columns and caissons of the semi-submersible platform induced by Internal Solitary Wave (ISW) respectively.

Bright-dark wave envelopes of nonlinear regularized-long-wave and Riemann wave models in plasma physics

open access: yesResults in Physics, 2021
The nonlinear regularized-long-wave (RLW) and the Riemann wave (RW) models are physically significant in plasma physics and in further study of nonlinear dispersive waves, namely shallow water, ion-acoustic and magneto-sound waves in plasmas, anharmonic ...

Numerical Investigation of Internal Solitary Wave Forces on Submarines in Continuously Stratified Fluids

open access: yesJournal of Marine Science and Engineering, 2021
A numerical model of internal solitary waves in continuously stratified fluids is developed by introducing a density transport equation to the three-dimensional Navier–Stokes equation and adopting the fully nonlinear models of the Dubreil-Jacotin-Long ...

A third-order KdV solution for internal solitary waves and its application in the numerical wave tank

open access: yesJournal of Ocean Engineering and Science, 2016
A third-order KdV solution to the internal solitary wave is derived by a new method based on the weakly nonlinear assumptions in a rigid-lid two-layer system. The solution corrects an error by Mirie and Su (1984).

ISWFoam: A numerical model for internal solitary wave simulation in continuously stratified fluids

open access: yesGeoscientific Model Development, 2021
. A numerical model, ISWFoam, for simulating internal solitary waves (ISWs) in continuously stratified, incompressible, viscous fluids is developed based on a fully three-dimensional (3D) Navier-Stokes equation using the open source code OpenFOAM.
