The problem formulations of models for three-dimensional weakly nonlinear shallow water waves regime in a stratified shear flow with a free surface are studied. Traveling wave solutions are generated by deriving the nonlinear higher order of nonlinear evaluation equations for the free surface displacement. We obtain the velocity potential and pressure fluid in the form of traveling wave solutions of the obtained nonlinear evaluation equation. The obtained solutions and the movement role of the waves of the exact solutions are new travelling wave solutions in different and explicit form such as solutions (bright and dark), solitary wave, periodic solitary wave elliptic function solutions of higher-order nonlinear evaluation equation.

AbstractEquations governing modulations of weakly nonlinear water waves are described. The modulations are coupled with wave-induced mean flows except in the case of water deeper than the modulation length scale. Equations suitable for water depths of the order the modulation length scale are deduced from those derived by Davey and Stewartson [5] and Dysthe [6]. A number of ases in which these equations reduce to a one dimensional nonlinear Schrödinger (NLS) equation are enumerated.Several analytical solutions of NLS equations are presented, with discussion of some of their implications for describing the propagation of water waves. Some of the solutions have not been presented in detail, or in convenient form before. One is new, a “rational” solution describing an “amplitude peak” which is isolated in space-time. Ma's [13] soli ton is particularly relevant to the recurrence of uniform wave trains in the experiment of Lake et al.[10].In further discussion it is pointed out that although water waves are unstable to three-dimensional disturbances, an effective description of weakly nonlinear two-dimensional waves would be a useful step towards describing ocean wave propagation.

With the aid of the planar dynamical systems and invariant algebraic cure, all algebraic traveling wave solutions for two extended (2 + 1)-dimensional Kadomtsev–Petviashvili equations, which can be used to model shallow water waves with weakly nonlinear restoring forces and to describe waves in ferromagnetic media, were obtained. Meanwhile, some new rational solutions are also yielded through an invariant algebraic cure with two different traveling wave transformations for the first time. These results are an effective complement to existing knowledge. It can help us understand the mechanism of shallow water waves more deeply.

We present derivations of shallow water model equations of Korteweg–de Vries and Boussinesq type for equatorial tsunami waves in the f -plane approximation and discuss their applicability. This article is part of the theme issue ‘Nonlinear water waves’.
