Solitary Wave Solution Of Flat Surface Internal Geophysical Waves With Vorticity, Alan Compelli
Solitary Wave Solution Of Flat Surface Internal Geophysical Waves With Vorticity, Alan Compelli
Conference papers
A fluid system bounded by a flat bottom and a flat surface with an internal wave and depth-dependent current is con-sidered. The Hamiltonian of the system is presented and the dynamics of the system are discussed. A long-wave regime is then considered and extended to produce a KdV approximation. Finally, a solitary wave solution is obtained.
