A numerical scheme based on the staggered finite volume method is presented at the aim of studying surface waves generated by a bottom motion. We address the 2D Euler equations in which the vertical domain is resolved only by one layer. The resulting non-hydrostatic scheme is used to simulate surface waves generated by bottom motion in a water tank. Here we mimic Hammack experiments numerically, in...
A Stefan problem is a free boundary problem where a phase boundary moves as a function of time. In this article, we consider one-dimensional and two-dimensional enthalpy-formulated Stefan problems. The enthalpy formulation has the advantage that the governing equations stay the same, regardless of the material state (liquid or solid). Numerical solutions are obtained by implementing the Godunov method...
A new Korteweg-de Vries type of equation for uni-directional waves over slowly varying bottom has been derived in Part I. The equation retains the Hamiltonian structure of the underlying complete set of equations for surface waves. For flat bottom it reduces to the standard Korteweg-de Vries equation. Uniform travelling waves (solitary and cnoidal waves) that exist when the bottom is flat will...
