Spatiotemporal variations of parameters of internal solitary waves in the northern South China Sea
The dynamic parameters for internal solitary waves (ISWs) derived from the extended Korteweg-de Vries (eKdV) equation play an important role in the...

Deformation and Stress Analysis of the Deepwater Steel Lazy Wave Riser Subjected to Internal Solitary Waves
The dynamic response of the steel lazy wave riser (SLWR) subjected to the internal solitary wave is a key to assessing its application feasibility....

Assessment of theoretical approaches to derivation of internal solitary wave parameters from multi-satellite images near the Dongsha Atoll of the South China Sea
This study assesses the accuracy and the applicability of the Korteweg-de Vries (KdV) and the nonlinear Schrödinger (NLS) equation solutions to...

Seasonal and spatial variations of kinematic parameters of internal solitary waves in the Andaman Sea
The horizontally variable density stratification and background currents are taken into the variable-coefficent extended Korteweg-de Vries (evKdV)...

Intense Undular Bores on the Autumn Pycnocline of Shelf Waters of the Peter the Great Bay (Sea of Japan)
The results of field observations of an internal undular bore that were performed in a coastal zone of constant depth in the Sea of Japan are...

Internal Waves in Two-Layer Sea
Two-layer model of the vertical structure of ocean water, where a layer of water of uniform lower density is located over a layer of uniform higher...

Waves in a Continuously Stratified Sea of Constant Water Depth
Ocean water is continuously stratified, i.e. the water density varies continuously with the depth. Internal waves still occur, but in contrast to the...

Waves in a Continuously Stratified Sea of Varying Depth
In the previous chapter, the propagation of internal waves was modelled under the assumption of constant water depth. However, the sea bottom only...

Effects of mesoscale eddies on the internal solitary wave propagation
The mesoscale eddy and internal wave both are phenomena commonly observed in oceans. It is aimed to investigate how the presence of a mesoscale eddy...

Depression and elevation internal solitary waves in a two-layer fluid and their forces on cylindrical piles
Both large amplitude depression and elevation internal solitary waves (ISWs) were observed on the continental shelf of the northwest South China Sea...

A new method to estimate phase speed and vertical velocity of internal solitary waves in the South China Sea
A new method of estimating the phase speed and vertical velocity of internal solitary waves (ISW) based on dynamic governing equations using Acoustic...

Analytical solutions of long nonlinear internal waves: Part I
The Gardner equation is an extension of the Korteweg–de Vries (KdV) equation. It exhibits basically the same properties as the classical KdV, but...

Highly nonlinear internal solitary waves over the continental shelf of the northwestern South China Sea
Large amplitude internal solitary waves (ISWs) often exhibit highly nonlinear effects and may contribute significantly to mixing and energy...

Laboratory experiments on waveform inversion of an internal solitary wave over a slope-shelf
Internal solitary waves (ISWs) have been detected in many parts of the world oceans, particularly over slope-shelf topography, on which signature of...

Modelling Internal Solitary Waves in the Coastal Ocean
In the coastal oceans, the interaction of currents (such as the barotropic tide) with topography can generate large-amplitude, horizontally...

Long Weakly Nonlinear Internal Waves
In this chapter we study trivial nonlinear effects appearing while long internal waves propagate. There may be two situations and each of them needs...

Review of Dispersive and Resonant Effects in Internal Wave Propagation
Theories and models for the generation, propagation and dissipation of long, nonlinear internal waves are reviewed. The roles of dispersive and...
