The mild-slope equation and its various modifications aim to model, with varying degrees of success, linear water wave propagation over sloping or undulating seabed topography. However, despite multiple modifications and attempted…
A nonlinear sea-ice problem is considered in a least-squares finite element setting. The corresponding variational formulation approximating simultaneously the stress tensor and the velocity is analysed. In particular, the least-squares…
We derive analytical formulas for the wake and wave drag of a disturbance moving arbitrarily at the air-water interface. We show that, provided a constant velocity is reached in finite time, the unsteady surface displacement converges to…
We derive equations relating the pressure at a flat seabed and the free-surface profile for steady gravity waves with constant vorticity. The resulting set of nonlinear equations enables the recovery of the free surface from pressure…
We consider the effect of surface roughness on solid-solid contact in a Stokes flow. Various models for the roughness are considered, and a unified methodology is given to derive the corresponding asymptotics of the drag force. In this way,…
We consider the problem of reconstructing the seabed topography from observations of surface gravity waves. We formulate the problem as a classical inverse scattering problem using the mild-slope equation, and analyze the topographic…
We propose higher-order approximation formulae recovering the surface elevation from the pressure at the bed and the background shear flow for small-amplitude Stokes and solitary water waves. They offer improvements over the pressure…
Examples of heavy mineral placer deposits are presented in which wave reflection, refraction, diffraction and resonance would appear to have played a major concentrating role. Their geometry is compared with the computer generated patterns…
We propose an algorithm for optimizations in which the gradients contain stochastic noise. This arises, for example, in structural optimizations when computations of forces and stresses rely on methods involving Monte Carlo sampling, such…
Surface tension has a strong influence on the shape of fluid interfaces. We propose a method to calculate the corresponding forces efficiently. In contrast to several previous approaches, we discriminate to this end between surface and…
Many immersed boundary methods solve for surface stresses that impose the velocity boundary conditions on an immersed body. These surface stresses may contain spurious oscillations that make them ill-suited for representing the physical…
In this paper, we present a numerical analysis of the hydrostatic Stokes equations, which are linearization of the primitive equations describing the geophysical flows of the ocean and the atmosphere. The hydrostatic Stokes equations can be…
A finite-element algorithm for computing free-surface flows driven by arbitrary body forces is presented. The algorithm is primarily designed for the microfluidic parameter range where (i) the Reynolds number is small and (ii) force-driven…
The finite element method is applied to obtain numerical solutions to the recently derived nonlinear equation for shallow water wave problem for several cases of bottom shapes. Results for time evolution of KdV solitons and cnoidal waves…
For many biological systems that involve elastic structures immersed in fluid, small length scales mean that inertial effects are also small, and the fluid obeys the Stokes equations. One way to solve the model equations representing such…
The forcing of particles in turbulent environments influences dynamical properties pertinent to many fundamental applications involving particle-flow interactions. Current study explores the determination of forcing for one-way coupled…
The wave kinetic equation has become an important tool in different fields of physics. In particular, for surface gravity waves, it is the backbone of wave forecasting models. Its derivation is based on the Hamiltonian dynamics of surface…
The lift and drag forces acting on a small spherical particle moving with a finite slip in single-wall-bounded flows are investigated via direct numerical simulations. The effect of slip velocity on the particle force is analysed as a…
A discrete-module-finite element (DMFE) based hydroelasticity method has been proposed and well developed. Firstly, a freely floating flexible structure is discretized into several macro-submodules in two horizontal directions to perform a…
A first-order system least squares formulation for the sea-ice dynamics is presented. In addition to the displacement field, the stress tensor is used as a variable. As finite element spaces, standard conforming piecewise polynomials for…
