A modified Galerkin/finite element method for the numerical solution of the Serre-Green-Naghdi system
A new modified Galerkin / Finite Element Method is proposed for the numerical
solution of the fully nonlinear shallow water wave equations. The new numerical
method allows the use of low-order Lagrange finite element spaces, despite the
fact that the system contains third order spatial partial derivatives for the
depth averaged velocity of the fluid. After studying the efficacy and the
conservation properties of the new numerical method, we proceed with the
validation of the new numerical model and boundary conditions by comparing the
numerical solutions with laboratory experiments and with available theoretical
asymptotic results
A splitting approach for the fully nonlinear and weakly dispersive Green-Naghdi model
The fully nonlinear and weakly dispersive Green-Naghdi model for shallow
water waves of large amplitude is studied. The original model is first recast
under a new formulation more suitable for numerical resolution. An hybrid
finite volume and finite difference splitting approach is then proposed. The
hyperbolic part of the equations is handled with a high-order finite volume
scheme allowing for breaking waves and dry areas. The dispersive part is
treated with a classical finite difference approach. Extensive numerical
validations are then performed in one horizontal dimension, relying both on
analytical solutions and experimental data. The results show that our approach
gives a good account of all the processes of wave transformation in coastal
areas: shoaling, wave breaking and run-up
Finite volume methods for unidirectional dispersive wave models
We extend the framework of the finite volume method to dispersive
unidirectional water wave propagation in one space dimension. In particular we
consider a KdV-BBM type equation. Explicit and IMEX Runge-Kutta type methods
are used for time discretizations. The fully discrete schemes are validated by
direct comparisons to analytic solutions. Invariants conservation properties
are also studied. Main applications include important nonlinear phenomena such
as dispersive shock wave formation, solitary waves and their various
interactions.Comment: 25 pages, 12 figures, 51 references. Other authors papers can be

Finite volume schemes for dispersive wave propagation and runup
Finite volume schemes are commonly used to construct approximate solutions to
conservation laws. In this study we extend the framework of the finite volume
methods to dispersive water wave models, in particular to Boussinesq type
systems. We focus mainly on the application of the method to bidirectional
nonlinear, dispersive wave propagation in one space dimension. Special emphasis
is given to important nonlinear phenomena such as solitary waves interactions,
dispersive shock wave formation and the runup of breaking and non-breaking long
waves.Comment: 41 pafes, 20 figures. Other author's papers can be downloaded at

Finite volume methods for unidirectional dispersive wave model
We extend the framework of the finite volume method to dispersive unidirectional water wave propagation in one space dimension. In particular, we consider a KdV–BBM-type equation. Explicit and implicit–explicit Runge–Kutta-type methods are used for time discretizations. The fully discrete schemes are validated by direct comparisons to analytic solutions. Invariants’ conservation properties are also studied. Main applications include important nonlinear phenomena such as dispersive shock wave formation, solitary waves, and their various interaction
