In this paper, the development of a class of depth-integrated, phase-resolving models for
surface wave propagation, known as Boussinesq-type models (BTMs), is reviewed. This …

We consider the issue of wave breaking closure for Boussinesq type models, and attempt at
providing some more understanding of the sensitivity of some closure approaches to the …

Abstract The Serre–Green–Naghdi (SGN) equations, also known as the fully-nonlinear
Boussinesq wave equations, accurately describe the behaviour of dispersive shoaling water …

Abstract The nonlocal Boussinesq equations (NLBEs) are investigated in this work. The
general forms of soliton solutions of the equations are firstly derived via Hirota bilinear …

The energy dissipation in the surf-zone due to wave breaking is inherently accounted for in
shock-capturing non-hydrostatic wave models, but this requires high vertical resolutions. To …

In this work, we develop two new types of (1+ 1)-dimensional nonlocal Boussinesq
equations to represent more situations in complex water waves. By applying ansatz method …

Wave breaking plays a crucial role in several areas of interest in coastal engineering, such
as flooding, wave loading on structures and coastal morphodynamics. In the present study …

Storm-induced coastal flooding is among the most destructive natural disasters, as seen
recently in the Bay of Bengal, the Gulf of Mexico and the Philippines. This study presents a …

We introduce a new class of two-dimensional fully nonlinear and weakly dispersive Green–
Naghdi equations over varying topography. These new Green–Naghdi systems share the …

Non-hydrostatic models such as Surface WAves till SHore (SWASH) resolve many of the
relevant physics in coastal wave propagation such as dispersion, shoaling, refraction …
