On internal solitary waves [PDF]
Earlier investigations of internal solitary waves in stable, stratified shear flows are generalized on the hypothesis that cubic and quadratic nonlinearity may be of comparable significance—or, equivalent, that ? = O(? 2 ), where ?? a / h < 1 and ? = ( h / l ) < 1 for a wave of amplitude a (which may be positive or negative) and length l in a fluid ...

Numerical simulations of the local generation of internal solitary waves in the Bay of Biscay [PDF]
Oceanic observations from the Bay of Biscay, Portugal, Mozambique Channel and Mascarene Ridge have provided evidence of the generation of internal solitary waves due to an internal tidal beam impinging on the thermocline from below – a process referred ...

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

Solitary-Wave Solutions of Benjamin–Ono and Other Systems for Internal Waves: II. Dynamics
Considered here are two systems of equations modeling the two-way propagation of long-crested, long-wavelength internal waves along the interface of a two-layer system of fluids in the Benjamin–Ono and the Intermediate Long-Wave regime, respectively ...

Research Progress on Mechanical Characteristics of Vertical Cylinders under Internal Solitary Waves
Internal solitary waves represent a common physical phenomenon in water bodies such as oceans,coasts,and estuaries.They are induced by external disturbances on a pycnocline in a stably stratified water body,and the shear flow excited during their ...

Brief communication: Multiscaled solitary waves [PDF]
It is analytically shown how competing nonlinearities yield multiscaled structures for internal solitary waves in stratified shallow fluids. These solitary waves only exist for large amplitudes beyond the limit of applicability of the Korteweg–de ...

An interesting oddity in the theory of large amplitude internal solitary waves
In the theory of internal waves in the coastal ocean, linear stratification plays an exceptional role. This is because the nonlinearity coefficient in KdV theory vanishes, and in the case of large amplitude waves, the DJL theory linearizes and fails to ...
