We provide solitons, breathers,and hybrid solutions of them. Four cases of a crucial φ(y), which is an arbitrary real continuous function appeared in f of bilinear form, are selected by using Jacobi elliptic functions, which yield a periodic solution and three kinds of doubly localized dormion-type solution. The first order Jacobi-type solution travels parallelly along the x axis with the velocity(3k12+ α, 0) on(x, y)-plane. If φ(y) = sn(y, 3/10), it is a periodic solution. If φ(y) = cn(y, 1), it is a dormion-type-Ⅰ solutions which has a maximum(3/4)k1p1 and a minimum-(3/4)k1p1. The width of the contour line is ln■. If φ(y) = sn(y, 1), we get a dormion-type-Ⅱ solution(26) which has only one extreme value-(3/2)k1p1. The width of the contour line is ln■. If φ(y) = sn(y, 1/2)/(1 + y2), we get a dormion-type-Ⅲ solution(21) which shows very strong doubly localized feature on(x, y) plane. Moreover, several interesting patterns of the mixture of periodic and localized solutions are also given in graphic way.展开更多

The disadvantage is that fluid viscidity is not considered in the 2DDSWWS, which is the same as the famous Kadomtsev-Petviashvili equation and Korteweg-de Vries equation. Applying dimensional analysis, we modify the 2DDSWWS and add the term related to the fluid viscidity to the 2DDSWWS. The approximate similarity solutions of the modified 2DDSWWS (M2DDSWWS) is studied and four similarity solutions are obtained. For the perfect fluids, the coefficient of kinematic viscosity is zero, then the M2DDSWWS will degenerate to the 2DDSWWS.展开更多

The continuity equations for fluid and particles and the Navier-Stokes equations govern the entire flow of turbidity currents. The shallow water equations governing the flow of the depositing phase of turbidity currents are derived from these equations. A case study was conducted on the flow regime of turbidity currents entering the Dez Reservoir in Iran from January 2002 to July 2003. Facing a serious sedimentation problem, the dead storage of the Dez Reservoir will be full in the coming 10 years, and the inflowing water in the hydropower conduit system is now becoming turbid. Based on the values of the dimensionless friction number ( Nf ≤1 ) and dimensionless entrainment number ( NE≤ 1 ) of turbidity currents, and the coefficient of determination between the observed and predicted deposit depths (R2 = 0.86) for the flow regime of negligible friction and negligible entrainment (NFNE), the flow regime of turbidity currents coming into the Dez Reservoir is considered to be NFNE. The results suggest that the ESWM is an appropriate approach for evaluation of the flow regime of turbidity currents in dam reservoirs where the characteristics of turbidity currents, such as the deposit depth, must be evaluated.展开更多

This the third-order genuinely multidimensional semi-discrete central scheme for spatial discretization and the optimal third-order Strong Stability Preserving (SSP) Runge-Kutta method for time integration. The third-order compact Central Weighted Essentially Non-Oscillatory (CWENO) reconstruction was adopted to guarantee the non-oscillatory behavior of the presented scheme and improve the resolution. Two kinds of source terms were considered in this work. They were evaluated using different approaches. The resulting scheme does not require Riemann solvers or characteristic decomposition, hence it retains all the attractive features of central schemes such as simplicity and high resolution. To evaluate the performance of the presented scheme, several numerical examples were tested. The results demonstrate that our method is efficient, stable and robust.展开更多

The first iterated solution, second iterated solution and a special N-soliton solution with an arbitrary function are derived with the resulting DT. Relevant properties are graphically illustrated, which might be helpful to understanding the propagation processes for ocean waves in shallow water.展开更多

Traditional numerical methods for simulating these events struggle with complex urban landscapes. This paper presents an alternative approach using Radial Basis Functions to simulate dam-break flows and their impact on urban flood inundation. The proposed method adapts a new strategy based on Particle Swarm Optimization for variable shape parameter selection on meshfree formulation to enhance the numerical stability and convergence of the simulation. The method’s accuracy and efficiency are demonstrated through numerical experiments, including well-known partial and circular dam-break problems and an idealized city with a single building, highlighting its potential as a valuable tool for urban flood risk management.展开更多

Coupled with shallow water equations, a depth-averaged 2-D flow and water quality model was developed. By means of the conservation law, a proposed differential equation for the change of sediment pollutants was linked to the 2-D equations. Under the framework of the finite volume method, the Osher approximate Riemann solver was employed to solve the equations. An analytical resolution was used to examine the model capabilities. Simulated results matched the exact solutions especially well. As an example, the simulation of CODMn in the Wuli Lake, a part of the Taihu lake, was conducted, which led to reasonable results. This study provides a new approach and a practical tool for the simulation of flow and water quality in shallow lakes.展开更多

The main objective is to design a numerical relation between the horizontal velocity on each layer and the depth-averaged velocity for employing the improved ADI method. With the free surface elevation and the depth-averaged velocity obtained by using essentially 2-D depth-averaged mode, the velocity profiles can be obtained easily and simultaneously. The wind-induced flows, the open channel flows due to the pressure gradient and the tidal flows in coastal waters are simulated, and the results are consistent well with the analytical solution and the field data, which shows that the present implicit scheme is stable and effective, and the established model is practical. Moreover, when only one vertical layer is specified, the present 3-D numerical model is reducea to the 2-D depth-averaged model.展开更多
