A global shock solution for the nonlinear shallow water equations (NSWEs) is found by assigning proper seaward boundary data that preserve a constant incoming Riemann invariant during the shock wave evolution. The correct shock relations, entropy conditions and asymptotic behaviour near the shoreline are provided along with an in-depth analysis of the main quantities along and behind the bore. The theoretical analysis is then applied to the specific case in which the water at the front of the shock wave is still. A comparison with the Shen & Meyer (J. Fluid Mech., vol. 16, 1963, p. 113) solution reveals that such a solution can be regarded as a specific case of the more general solution proposed here. The results obtained can be regarded as a useful benchmark for numerical solvers based on the NSWEs.

AbstractThe shallow water equations have wide applications in ocean, atmospheric modeling and hydraulic engineering, also they can be used to model flows in rivers and coastal areas. In this article we obtained exact solutions of three equations of shallow water by using $\frac{{G'}} {G} $-expansion method. Hyperbolic and triangular periodic solutions can be obtained from the $\frac{{G'}} {G} $-expansion method.
