A new model of viscous dissipation for an oscillating wave surge converter
A mathematical model of an oscillating wave surge converter is developed to study the effect that viscous dissipation has on the behaviour of the device. Recent theoretical and experimental testing have sugges...

Shock propagation in regular wetted arrays of fibers
We present results of shock propagation in a wetted foam modeled as a regular staggered row lattice of parallel cylinders in two-dimensions immersed in a background of different density. Both media are perfect...

Open AccessReal-time full bandwidth measurement of spectral noise in supercontinuum generation
The ability to measure real-time fluctuations of ultrashort pulses propagating in optical fiber has provided significant insights into fundamental dynamical effects such as modulation instability and the forma...

Open AccessObservation of Kuznetsov-Ma soliton dynamics in optical fibre
The nonlinear Schrödinger equation (NLSE) is a central model of nonlinear science, applying to hydrodynamics, plasma physics, molecular biology and optics. The NLSE admits only few elementary analytic solution...

Potential-flow studies of steady two-dimensional jets, waterfalls, weirs and sprays
Various numerical and analytical calculations of jets, waterfalls, weirs and sprays are discussed. Steady planar potential flows are considered. Boundary-integral-equation methods, series-truncation techniques...

The Peregrine soliton in nonlinear fibre optics
The Peregrine soliton — a wave localized in both space and time — is now observed experimentally for the first time by using femtosecond pulses in an optical fibre. The results give some insight into freak wav...

A Study of the Tsunami Effects of Two Landslides in the St. Lawrence Estuary
The Lower St. Lawrence Estuary (LSLE) is a 230 km long by 50 km wide trough with a broad, flat floor with maximum water depths of 400 m and “shelves” that sit in water depths of < 60 m. It is partly filled wit...

Collapse of solitary waves near the transition from supercritical to subcritical bifurcations
The nonlinear stage of the instability of one-dimensional solitons within a small vicinity of the transition point from supercritical to subcritical bifurcations has been studied both analytically and numerica...

Steady Free-surface Flow Past an Uneven Channel Bottom
New free-surface flows past a semi-infinite ‘step’ in the bottom of a channel are considered. Surface tension is neglected but gravity is included in the dynamic boundary condition. Fully nonlinear solutions a...

Bifurcations and stability of internal solitary waves
We study both supercritical and subcritical bifurcations of internal solitary waves propagating along the interface between two deep ideal fluids. We derive a generalized nonlinear Schrödinger equation to desc...

Generalised critical free-surface flows
Nonlinear waves in a forced channel flow are considered. The forcing is due to a bottom obstruction. The study is restricted to steady flows. A weakly nonlinear analysis shows that for a given obstruction, the...
