Numerical Simulations of Internal Solitary and Solitary-Like Waves: Wave Interactions and Instabilities
Xu, Chengzhu (University of Waterloo, 2019-05-31)Internal solitary and solitary-like waves (ISWs) are commonly observed in stably stratified fluids such as the Earth's atmosphere and oceans. As these waves interact with other physical processes and/or move through a ... -
Numerical Simulations of Shoaling Internal Solitary Waves of Elevation
Xu, Chengzhu (University of Waterloo, 2015-04-13)We present high-resolution, two- and three-dimensional direct numerical simulations of laboratory-scale, fully nonlinear internal solitary waves of elevation shoaling onto and over a small-amplitude shelf. The three-dimensional, ...
