Horizontally Inhomogeneous

The effect of horizontally inhomogeneous flows on internal wave propagation in a stratified ocean with a constant Brunt-Väisälä frequency is analysed. Dispersion characteristics of internal waves in a moving fluid and kinematics of wave packets in smoothly inhomogeneous flows are considered using wave-normal surfaces. It is shown that internal-wave blocking and short-wave transformation may occur in longitudinally inhomogeneous flows. For parallel flows internal-wave trapping is possible in the vicinity of the limiting layer where the wave frequency in the locally comoving frame of reference coincides with the Brunt-Väisälä frequency. Internal-wave trapping also takes place in jet-type flows in the vicinity of the flow-velocity maximum. WKB solutions of the equation describing internal-wave propagation in a parallel horizontally inhomogeneous flow in the linear approximation are obtained. Singular points of this equation and the related effect of internal-wave amplification (overreflection) under the action of the flow are investigated. The spectrum and the growth rate of internal-wave localized modes in a jet-type flow are obtained.

One of the phenomenon in marine science that is often encountered is the phenomenon of water waves. Waves that occur below the surface of seawater are called internal waves. One of the mathematical models that can represent solitary internal waves is the modified Korteweg-de Vries (mKdV) equation. Many methods can be used to construct the solution of the mKdV wave equation, one of which is the extended F-expansion method. The purpose of this study is to determine the solution of the mKdV wave equation using the extended F-expansion method. The result of solving the mKdV wave equation is the exact solutions. The exact solutions of the mKdV wave equation are expressed in the Jacobi elliptic functions, trigonometric functions, and hyperbolic functions. From this research, it is expected to be able to add insight and knowledge about the implementation of the innovative methods for solving wave equations.

Symmetry Transformations

For the symmetry group of internal-wave equations, the mechanical content of invariants and symmetry transformations is determined. The performed comparison makes it possible to construct expressions for analogs of momentum, angular momentum, energy, Lorentz transformations, and other characteristics of special relativity and electro-dynamics. The expressions for the Lagrange function are defined, and the conservation laws are derived. An analogy is drawn both in the case of the absence of sources and currents in the Maxwell equations and in their presence.
