Generation of internal solitary waves by frontally forced intrusions in geophysical flows. [PDF]
Nat Commun, 2016 Internal solitary waves are widespread within oceans, lakes and the atmosphere but their origin is uncertain. Here we show a rare natural case of the birth of internal solitary waves arising from the head of a frontally-forced intrusion as observed in ...

Numerical Simulation of the Force Acting on the Riser by Two Internal Solitary Waves
Applied Sciences, 2022 An internal wave is a typical dynamic process. As an internal wave, an internal solitary wave usually occurs between two layers of fluids with different densities.

Numerical Simulation for the Evolution of Internal Solitary Waves Propagating over Slope Topography
Journal of Marine Science and Engineering, 2021 In this study, the propagation and evolution characteristics of internal solitary waves on slope topography in stratified fluids were investigated. A numerical model of internal solitary wave propagation based on the nonlinear potential flow theory using

Internal solitary waves in a variable medium [PDF]
GAMM Mitteilungen, 2007 AbstractIn both the ocean and the atmosphere, the interaction of a density stratified flow with topography can generate large‐amplitude, horizontally propagating internal solitary waves. Often these waves are observed in regions where the waveguide properties vary in the direction of propagation.

The lifecycle of axisymmetric internal solitary waves [PDF]
Nonlinear Processes in Geophysics, 2010 The generation and evolution of solitary waves by intrusive gravity currents in an approximate two-layer fluid with equal upper- and lower-layer depths is examined in a cylindrical geometry by way of theory and numerical simulations. The study is limited

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