DESCRIPTION:Title: <a href="https://stable.researchseminars.org/talk/WOW/7
 /">Coupling dispersive water waves to shallow-water bores on a beach</a>\n
 by Onno Bokhove (University of Leeds) as part of Waves in One World (WOW) 
 series\n\n\nAbstract\nPotential-flow water waves are coupled to a shallow-
 water model\, including hydraulic bores\, at a beach to deal with unidirec
 tional wave propagation in a finite domain. Such a set-up also matches wav
 etank conditions used for testing and validation of model structures such 
 as ships in maritime engineering. Note that shorter\, non-breaking and dis
 persive waves in deeper water are thus damped by wave breaking at the beac
 h. A suitable coupling point is chosen in sufficiently shallow water\, whe
 re the two models are coupled by using variational techniques. Numerically
 \, a space-time variational approach is followed for the potential-flow wa
 ter waves coupled to a classical finite-volume method for the shallow-wate
 r model. The entire approach has been validated numerically against bespok
 e wavetank experiments undertaken at the TU Delft. The main work was perfo
 rmed by Floriane Gidel [1]\, in collaboration with Tim Bunnik and Geert Ka
 psenberg (MARIN\, Maritime Research Institute Netherlands)\, Mark Kelmanso
 n and the speaker (Leeds). \n\n[1] F. Gidel 2018: Variational water-wave m
