Anomalous resonance phenomena of solitary waves with internal modes [PDF]

open access: yes, 1999
We investigate the non-parametric, pure ac driven dynamics of nonlinear Klein-Gordon solitary waves having an internal mode of frequency $\Omega_i$. We show that the strongest resonance arises when the driving frequency $\delta=\Omega_i/2$, whereas when $

Asymptotic models for the generation of internal waves by a moving ship, and the dead-water phenomenon [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
This paper deals with the dead-water phenomenon, which occurs when a ship sails in a stratified fluid, and experiences an important drag due to waves below the surface.

The solitonic solutions of finite depth long water wave models

open access: yesResults in Physics, 2022
The nonlinear Fokas and breaking soliton equations are important modeling equations for coastal and ocean waves, such as long water waves and tsunami waves.

Theoretical seismology in 3D : nonlinear simulations of internal gravity waves in solar-like stars [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
Internal gravity waves (hereafter IGWs) are studied for their impact on the angular momentum transport in stellar radiation zones and the information they provide about the structure and dynamics of deep stellar interiors.

Internal solitary wave transformation over the slope: Asymptotic theory and numerical simulation

open access: yesJournal of Ocean Engineering and Science, 2018
The propagation and evolution of long nonlinear internal solitary waves over slope-shelf topography is theoretically and numerically studied in a two-layer fluid system of finite depth. The variable Korteweg–de Vries (vKdV) and variable extended Korteweg–

Brief communication: Modulation instability of internal waves in a smoothly stratified shallow fluid with a constant buoyancy frequency [PDF]

open access: yesNatural Hazards and Earth System Sciences, 2019
Unexpectedly large displacements in the interior of the oceans are studied through the dynamics of packets of internal waves, where the evolution of these displacements is governed by the nonlinear Schrödinger equation.

PSI to turbulence during internal wave beam refraction through the upper ocean pycnocline [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
A numerical study based on large eddy simulation (LES) is performed to investigate the nonlinear interaction of a semidiurnal (M2) internal wave beam with an upper ocean pycnocline.

Examining Breaking Internal Waves on a Shelf Slope Using Numerical Simulations [PDF]

open access: yesOceanography, 2012
The subject of internal waves interacting with bottom topographic features in the ocean has received much attention in the past few decades. This heightened interest is mainly due to a conjecture that breaking internal waves at boundaries can be a ...

Strongly nonlinear, simple internal waves in continuously-stratified, shallow fluids [PDF]

open access: yesNonlinear Processes in Geophysics, 2011
Strongly nonlinear internal waves in a layer with arbitrary stratification are considered in the hydrostatic approximation. It is shown that "simple waves" having a variable vertical structure can emerge from a wide class of initial conditions.

Nonlinear waves in solids with slow dynamics: an internal-variable model [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
In heterogeneous solids such as rocks and concrete, the speed of sound diminishes with the strain amplitude of a dynamic loading (softening). This decrease known as "slow dynamics" occurs at time scales larger than the period of the forcing.
