The dynamics of impurity distribution in marine systems

The system of Navier-Stokes equations, which includes three equations of motion in regions with a dynamically varying geometry of the computational domain was used to describe the wave processes. The velocity vector field is used as input information for calculating the dynamics of impurity propagation in marine systems. The article considers construction and investigation of parallel algorithms for the numerical realization of 3D models of suspended matter transportation and deposition and 2D models of bottom sediment transportation in sea coastal systems on the basis of explicit schemes with regularization terms that provide improved stability quality. The developed models take into account coastal currents and stress near the bottom caused by wind waves, turbulent spatial-three-dimensional motion of the water medium, particle size distribution and porosity of bottom sediments and hydraulic size of suspended particles, complicated shoreline shape and bottom relief and other factors. The practical significance of numerical algorithms and the complex of programs that realize them consists in the possibility of their application in the study of processes in coastal water systems, as well as in constructing the velocity and pressure field of the aquatic environment

Correctness investigation for the suspension transport problem in coastal systems

This article is devoted to the confirmation the need for using a set of 3D dynamics models describing the various hydrophysical characteristics of the studied object to solve practical problems associated with the assessment of the ecological state of the water reservoirs. The present paper is devoted to the study of the three-dimensional model of transport and sedimentation of suspended matter in the coastal zone. The model takes into account such parameters as water movement, diffusionconvection, complicated bottom and shoreline geometry, lifting, transport and sedimentation of slurry. The existence and uniqueness of the solution of the corresponding indicated model of the initial-boundary value problem haas been envestigateded for two typical bottom boundary condirions. Also solution stability of the boundary-value problem in depend of functions: initial condition, boundary conditions and the righthand side in the norm L2 for any moment of time 0 < T < +∞, and also in the time-integral norm L2 has been proved. The model may be basis for the construction of hydrophysics models used to describe processes in the extraction of minerals from the seabed, in the dissemination of suspensions in shelf regions

Sufficient conditions for convergence of positive solutions to linearized two-dimensional sediment transport problem

Introduction. The sediment transportation is one of the major processes that define the magnitude and back surface changing rate for water bodies. The most used prognostic studies in this field are based on the mathematical models that allow reducing, and in some cases, eliminating the expensive and often environmentally burdensome experiments. Spatially one-dimensional models are mainly used to predict changes in bottom topography. For actual coastal systems with irregular coastal configuration, the flow vector is generally not orthogonal to the tangent line for the coastline at each of its points. It also may not coincide with the wind stress vector. Therefore, to solve lots of practically important problems associated with the prediction of the dynamics of the back surface of water basins, it is necessary to use spatially two-dimensional models of sediment transportation and effective numerical methods of their implementation. Materials and Methods. The authors (A.I. Sukhinov, A.E. Chistyakov, E.A. Protsenko, and V.V. Sidoryakina) have earlier proposed a spatially two-dimensional model of sediment transport that satisfies the basic conservation laws (of material balance and momentum) which is a quasilinear equation of parabolic type. The linear difference schemes are constructed and studied; model and some practically important tasks are solved. However, the theoretical study on the proximity of solutions for the original nonlinear initial-boundary value problem and the linearized continuous task - on which basis a discrete model (difference scheme) was built - remained in the shadow. The study of the linearized problem correctness and the determination of sufficient conditions for positivity of solutions are of special interest because only positive solutions to this sediment transport problem have physical value within the framework of the considered models. Research Results. The investigated nonlinear two-dimensional model of sediment transport in the coastal zone of shallow reservoirs takes account of the following physically significant factors and parameters: soil porosity; critical value of the tangent stress at which load transport starts; turbulent interaction; dynamically varying of the bottom geometry; wind currents; and bottom friction. Linearization is carried out on the time grid - nonlinear coefficients of the parabolic equation are taken for the previous time grid step. Next, a chain of tasks connected by the initial data - final solutions of the linearized mixed Cauchy problems chain on a uniform time grid is constructed, and thus, the linearization for the initial 2D nonlinear model is carried out in large. Earlier, the authors have proved the existence and uniqueness of the solution to a linear tasks chain. Prior estimate of the proximity of the linearized problem chain solution to the initial non-linear task solution has been also obtained. The conditions of its solution positivity and their convergence to the nonlinear sediment transport problem are defined in the norm of the Hilbert space L1 with the rate O(τ) where τ is a time step. Discussion and Conclusions. The obtained research results of the spatially two-dimensional nonlinear sediment transport model can be used for predicting the nonlinear hydrodynamic processes, improving their accuracy and reliability due to the availability of new accounting functionality of physically important factors, including the specification of the boundary conditions
