An adaptive artificial viscosity for the displacement shallow water wave equation

The numerical oscillation problem is a difficulty for the simulation of rapidly varying shallow water surfaces which are often caused by the unsmooth uneven bottom,the moving wet-dry interface, and so on. In this paper, an adaptive artificial viscosity(AAV) is proposed and combined with the displacement shallow water wave equation(DSWWE) to establish an effective model which can accurately predict the evolution of multiple shocks effected by the uneven bottom and the wet-dry interface.

Difference inversion model of wave equation

A numerical iterative model was derived from the difference method and a perturbation assumption to calculate the coefficient function of a wave equation. The method was used to solve the disaccord problem of numerical precision between the direct problem model and inverse problem model, and its serial problems using the old method. Numerical simulation calculation shows that the method is feasible and effective.     

Transformation method and wave control

Transformation method provides an efficient way to control wave propagation by materials.The transformed relations for field and material during a transformation are essential to fulfill this method.We propose a systematic method to derive the transformed relations for a general physic process,the constraint conditions are obtained by considering geometrical and physical constraint during a mapping. The proposed method is applied to Navier＇s equation for elastodynamics,Helmholtz＇s equation for acoustic wave and Maxwell＇s equation for electromagnetic wave,the corresponding transformed relations are derived,which can be used in the framework of transformation method for wave control.We show that contrary to electromagnetic wave,the transformed relations are not uniquely determined for elastic wave and acoustic wave,so we have a freedom to choose them differently.Using the obtained transformed relations,we also provide some examples for device design,a concentrator for elastic wave,devices for illusion acoustic and illusion optics are conceived and validated by numerical simulations.     

THE MATHEMATICAL MODELLING OF NEAR COAST SHALLOW WATER CIRCULATION

This paper presents a finite element method to solve the shallow water circulation problem numerically. Considering the Coriolis effect, bottom friction and eddy viscosity, the continuity equation and momentum equation are integrated vertically. Using Galerkin weighted residual method, the weak variational formulation is derived for the finite element analysis. The split-time method is applied for the numerical integration instead of iteration for nonlinear terms. Moreover, an artificial smooth approach is proposed to suppress the short wavelength noise. In order to save Computer storage units, a densed storage scheme is set up, where all the zero elements in large scaled and sparse matrices are excluded.     

A Newton type iterative method for heat-conduction inverse problems

An inverse problem for identification of the coefficient in heat-conduction equation is considered. After reducing the problem to a nonlinear ill-posed operator equation, Newton type iterative methods are considered. The implicit iterative method is applied to the linearized Newton equation, and the key step in the process is that a new reasonable a posteriori stopping rule for the inner iteration is presented. Numerical experiments for the new method as well as for Tikhonov method and Bakushikskii method are given, and these results show the obvious advantages of the new method over the other ones.     

A novel method for predicting the power outputs of wave energy converters

This paper focuses on realistically predicting the power outputs of wave energy converters operating in shallow water nonlinear waves. A heaving two-body point absorber is utilized as a specific calculation example, and the generated power of the point absorber has been predicted by using a novel method(a nonlinear simulation method) that incorporates a second order random wave model into a nonlinear dynamic filter. It is demonstrated that the second order random wave model in this article can be utilized to generate irregular waves with realistic crest–trough asymmetries, and consequently, more accurate generated power can be predicted by subsequently solving the nonlinear dynamic filter equation with the nonlinearly simulated second order waves as inputs. The research findings demonstrate that the novel nonlinear simulation method in this article can be utilized as a robust tool for ocean engineers in their design, analysis and optimization of wave energy converters.

In this paper a new approach for designing upwind type schemes-the characterizing-integral method and its applied skills are introduced, The method is simple, convenient and eff ective. And the method isn't only limited to conservation laws unlike other methods and may be easily extended to multi-dimension problems. Furthermore, the numerical dissipation of the method can be flexibly regulated, so that it is especially suitable for solving various discontinuity problems. The paper shows us how to use this approach to simulate deformation and breaking of a nonlinear shallow water wave on a gentle slope, and to compute two-dimensional dam failure problem.
