A splitting approach for the fully nonlinear and weakly dispersive Green-Naghdi model [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
The fully nonlinear and weakly dispersive Green-Naghdi model for shallow water waves of large amplitude is studied. The original model is first recast under a new formulation more suitable for numerical resolution.

Long Wave Run-Up on Random Beaches [PDF]

open access: yesPhysical Review Letters, 2011
The estimation of the maximum wave sunup height is a problem of practical importance. Most of the analytical and numerical studies are limited to a constant slope plain shore and to the classical Nonlinear Shallow Water (NSW) equations. However, in nature the shore is characterized by some roughness.

Long Wave Run-Up Resonance in a Multi-Reflection System

open access: yesApplied Sciences, 2020
Wave reflection and wave trapping can lead to long wave run-up resonance. After reviewing the theory of run-up resonance in the framework of the linear shallow water equations, we perform numerical simulations of periodic waves incident on a linearly ...

Shoaling mode-2 internal solitary-like waves [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
The propagation of a train of mode-2 internal solitary-like waves (ISWs) over a uniformly sloping, solid topographic boundary, has been studied by means of a combined laboratory and numerical investigation.

Interaction of idealized urban infrastructure and long waves during run-up and on-land flow process in coastal regions [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
This paper reports experimental results of long wave run-up climbing up a 1:40 sloping beach. The resulting maximum run-up is compared with analytical results and a good agreement is found for single sinusoidal waves with uniform wave period and varying ...

Nonlinear deformation and run-up of single tsunami waves of positive polarity: numerical simulations and analytical predictions [PDF]

open access: yesNatural Hazards and Earth System Sciences, 2019
The estimate of an individual wave run-up is especially important for tsunami warning and risk assessment, as it allows for evaluating the inundation area. Here, as a model of tsunamis, we use the long single wave of positive polarity. The period of such

AAA+ protein unfoldases—the Moirai of the proteome

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
AAA+ unfoldases are essential molecular motors that power protein degradation and disaggregation. This review integrates recent cryo‐electron microscopy (cryo‐EM) structures and single‐molecule biophysical data to reconcile competing models of substrate translocation.

Predicting wave run-up on vertical columns based on thermal stereography measurements

open access: yesApplied Ocean Research
Accurate estimation of wave run-up is crucial for the design and safety of marine structures. To facilitate more precise and convenient predictions of wave run-up on vertical columns, including circular and square columns, many empirical formulas have ...

Laboratory design-studies of the effect of waves on a proposed island site for a combined nuclear power and desalting plant [PDF]

open access: yes, 1966
There were four major objectives to this investigation: 1) the determination of the degree of stability of the island face when constructed of armor units of various weights; 2) the run-up for a two-dimensional wave system impinging on the island face; 3)
