Zusammenfassung |
Water wave packets are often described by the usual nonlinear Schrodinger equation, for
which a wave packet can only exist in deep water, more precisely when kh > 1.363 where
k is the wavenumber and h is the depth. However, near the critical depth when
kh = 1.363 it is necessary to develop a higher-order nonlinear Schrodinger equation
with variable coefficients to describe how a water wave packet will deform as it
propagates shoreward from deep to shallow water. Using a combination of asymptotic
analysis and numerical simulations we find that in the framework of this higher-order
nonlinear Schrodinger equation, the wave packet can penetrate into shallow water
kh < 1.363 or not even reach kh = 1.363, depending on the sign of the initial value in
deep water of a certain parameter of the wave packet which measures its speed. |
