Guided solitary waves [PDF]

open access: yesProceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, 1980
Transversely periodic solitary-wave solutions of the Boussinesq equations (which govern wave propagation in a weakly dispersive, weakly nonlinear physical system) are determined. The solutions for negative dispersion (e.g., gravity waves) are singular and therefore physically unacceptable. The solutions for positive dispersion (e.g., capillary waves or

Generalized (2 + 1)-dimensional mKdV-Burgers equation and its solution by modified hyperbolic function expansion method

open access: yesResults in Physics, 2019
We investigate a new higher-dimensional nonlinear dynamics model to describe the generation and evolution of Rossby waves. We derive a generalized (2 + 1)-dimensional modified Korteweg-de Vries (mKdV)-Burgers equation by considering the quasi-geostrophic

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

open access: yesNonlinear 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

Large amplitude dust-acoustic solitary waves and double layers in nonthermal warm complex plasmas

open access: yesAIP Advances, 2023
Using a Sagdeev pseudo-potential approach, where the nonlinear structures are stationary in a comoving frame, the arbitrary or large amplitude dust-acoustic solitary waves and double layers have been studied in dusty plasmas containing warm positively ...

Roles of positively charged dust, ion fluid temperature, and nonthermal electrons in the formation of modified-ion-acoustic solitary and shock waves

open access: yesResults in Physics, 2021
The dusty plasma system (containing nonthermally distributed inertialess electron species, warm inertial ion species, and positively charged stationary dust species) is considered.

A plethora of generalised solitary gravity-capillary water waves [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
The present study describes, first, an efficient algorithm for computing capillary-gravity solitary waves solutions of the irrotational Euler equations with a free surface and, second, provides numerical evidences of the existence of an infinite number ...

Rossby Solitary Waves Generated by Wavy Bottom in Stratified Fluids

open access: yesAdvances in Mechanical Engineering, 2013
Rossby solitary waves generated by a wavy bottom are studied in stratified fluids. From the quasigeostrophic vorticity equation including a wavy bottom and dissipation, by employing perturbation expansions and stretching transforms of time and space, a ...

Fractional Theoretical Model for Gravity Waves and Squall Line in Complex Atmospheric Motion

open access: yesComplexity, 2020
The evolution of nonlinear gravity solitary waves in the atmosphere is related to the formation of severe weather. The nonlinear concentration of gravity solitary wave leads to energy accumulation, which further forms the disastrous weather phenomenon ...

Influence of Controlled Viscous Dissipation on the Propagation of Strongly Nonlinear Waves in Stainless Steel Based Phononic Crystals [PDF]

open access: yes, 2005
Strongly nonlinear phononic crystals were assembled from stainless steel spheres. Single solitary waves and splitting of an initial pulse into a train of solitary waves were investigated in different viscous media using motor oil and non-aqueous glycerol
