Nonlinear magnetoacoustic waves in a cold plasma [PDF]

open access: yes, 2007
The equations describing planar magnetoacoustic waves of permanent form in a cold plasma are rewritten so as to highlight the presence of a naturally small parameter equal to the ratio of the electron and ion masses.

Separation of Long-Crested Nonlinear Bichromatic Waves into Incident and Reflected Components

open access: yesJournal of Marine Science and Engineering, 2019
Methods for the separation of long-crested linear waves into incident and reflected waves have existed for more than 40 years. The present paper presents a new method for the separation of nonlinear bichromatic long-crested waves into incident and ...

Linear and nonlinear waves

open access: yesScholarpedia, 2009
The study of waves can be traced back to antiquity where philosophers, such as Pythagoras (c.560-480 BC), studied the relation of pitch and length of string in musical instruments. However, it was not until the work of Giovani Benedetti (1530-90), Isaac Beeckman (1588-1637) and Galileo (1564-1642) that the relationship between pitch and frequency was ...

New Types of Nonlinear Waves and Bifurcation Phenomena in Schamel-Korteweg-de Vries Equation

open access: yesAbstract and Applied Analysis, 2013
We study the nonlinear waves described by Schamel-Korteweg-de Vries equation ut+au1/2+buux+δuxxx=0. Two new types of nonlinear waves called compacton-like waves and kink-like waves are displayed.

Vector Rogue Waves and Baseband Modulation Instability in the Defocusing Regime [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
We report and discuss analytical solutions of the vector nonlinear Schrödinger equation that describe rogue waves in the defocusing regime. This family of solutions includes bright-dark and dark-dark rogue waves. The link between modulational instability

Study of Polarized Wave with a Hydrodynamic Model and Fourier Spectral Method

open access: yesModelling and Simulation in Engineering, 2013
The polarization effects in hydrodynamics are studied. Hydrodynamic equation for the nonlinear wave is used along with the polarized nonlinear waves and seismic waves act as initial waves.

Solitary-wave solutions of the Degasperis-Procesi equation by means of the homotopy analysis method [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
The homotopy analysis method is applied to the Degasperis-Procesi equation in order to find analytic approximations to the known exact solitary-wave solutions for the solitary peakon wave and the family of solitary smooth-hump waves.

An Effect of Electrokinetics Phenomena on Nonlinear Wave Propagation in Bubbly Liquids

open access: yesInternational Journal of Applied Mechanics and Engineering, 2021
A study of nonlinear waves in liquid-gas mixtures with the consideration of internal effects is an important problem of both the fundamental and the applied fluid mechanics.

Large-amplitude capillary waves in electrified fluid sheets [PDF]

open access: yes, 2004
Large-amplitude capillary waves on fluid sheets are computed in the presence of a uniform electric field acting in a direction parallel to the undisturbed configuration. The fluid is taken to be inviscid, incompressible and non-conducting.

Reflection and transmission of nonlinear water waves at a semi-submerged dock

open access: yesArchives of Mechanics, 2013
A theoretical approach is applied to predict reflection and transmission of nonlinear water waves at a semi-submerged dock. The solution was achieved analytically and by the method of matched eigenfunction expansions.
