Surface and interfacial weakly-nonlinear ring waves in a two-layer fluid are
modelled numerically, within the framework of the recently derived
2+1-dimensional cKdV-type equation. In a case study, we consider concentric
waves from a localised initial condition and waves in a 2D version of the
dam-break problem, as well as discussing the effect of a piecewise-constant
shear flow. The modelling shows, in particular, the formation of 2D dispersive
shock waves (DSWs) and oscillatory wave trains. The surface and interfacial
DSWs generated in our numerical experiments look distinctively different.Comment: 16 pages, 21 figure
