Numerical Simulation of the Force Acting on the Riser by Two Internal Solitary Waves
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.

Stratification effects on shoaling internal solitary waves [PDF]
This combined numerical/laboratory study investigates the effect of stratification form on the shoaling characteristics of internal solitary waves propagating over a smooth, linear topographic slope. Three stratification types are investigated, namely (i) thin tanh (homogeneous upper and lower layers separated by a thin pycnocline), (ii) surface ...

Internal solitary waves in a variable medium [PDF]
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.

Modulation of internal solitary waves by the Kuroshio in the northern South China Sea. [PDF]
Internal solitary waves (ISWs) in the South China Sea (SCS) are considerably modulated by the background currents. In this study, a three-dimensional high-resolution non-hydrostatic model is configured to investigate how the Kuroshio influences the ...

Long solitary internal waves in stable stratifications [PDF]
Observations of internal solitary waves over an antarctic ice shelf (Rees and Rottman, 1994) demonstrate that even large amplitude disturbances have wavelengths that are bounded by simple heuristic arguments following from the Scorer parameter based on ...

Experimental and theoretical studies of sea ice effects on internal solitary waves
Internal solitary waves in polar regions have attracted much interest recently. It is important to understand how sea ice affects them as this may have a profound influence on human activities and the environment.

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

Noise of Internal Solitary Waves Measured by Mooring-Mounted Hydrophone Array in the South China Sea
Internal solitary waves in the South China Sea have attracted attention because of their large amplitude and high rate of occurrence. Internal solitary waves have a substantial influence on underwater sound propagation and ambient noise.

Internal solitary waves generated by a moving bottom disturbance
The strongly nonlinear Miyata–Choi–Camassa model under the rigid lid approximation (MCC-RL model) can describe accurately the dynamics of large-amplitude internal waves in a two-layer fluid system for shallow configurations.
