Two-dimensional periodic interfacial gravity waves travelling between two homogeneous fluids of finite depth are considered. A boundary-integral-equation method coupled with Fourier expansions of the unknown functions is used to obtain highly accurate solutions. Our numerical results show excellent agreement with those already obtained by Maklakov & Sharipov using a different scheme (J. Fluid Mech., vol. 856, 2018, pp. 673–708). We explore the global bifurcation mechanism of periodic interfacial waves and find three types of limiting wave profiles. The new families of solutions appear either as isolated branches or as secondary branches bifurcating from the primary branch of solutions.

Finite Difference Techniques

We have constructed a hybrid scheme for elastic‐wave propagation in two‐dimensional laterally inhomogeneous media. The algorithm is based on a combination of finite‐difference techniques and the boundary integral equation method. It involves a dedicated application of each of the two methods to specific domains of the model structure; finite‐difference techniques are applied to calculate a set of boundary values (wave field and stress field) in the vicinity of the heterogeneous domain. The continuation of the near‐field response is then calculated by means of the boundary integral equation method. In a numerical example, the hybrid method has been applied to calculate a plane‐wave response for an elastic lens embedded in a homogeneous environment. The example shows that the hybrid scheme enables more efficient modeling, with the same accuracy, than with pure finite‐difference calculations.

A numerical solution to periodic nonlinear irrotational surface gravity waves on a horizontal sea floor is developed using an iterative Boundary Integral Equation Method (BIEM). This solution technique is subsequently applied to determine the characteristics of limit waves for which the wave crest theoretically ceases to be rounded and become angled with an included angle of 120 degrees.

AbstractSteady two-dimensional free surface flow past a semi-infinite flat plate is considered. The vorticity in the flow is assumed to be constant. For large values of the Froude number F, an analytical relation between F, the vorticity parameter ω and the steepness s of the waves in the far field is derived. In addition numerical solutions are calculated by a boundary integral equation method.

The interpolating boundary element-free method (IBEFM) is a direct solution method of the meshless boundary integral equation method, which has high efficiency and accuracy. The IBEFM is developed based on the interpolating moving least-squares (IMLS) method and the boundary integral equation method. Since the shape function of the IMLS method satisfies the interpolation characteristics, the IBEFM can directly and accurately impose the essential boundary conditions, which overcomes the shortcomings of the original boundary element-free method in enforcing the essential boundary approximately. This paper will study the error estimations of the IBEFM for two-dimensional potential problems and the relationship between the errors and the influence radius and the condition number of the coefficient matrix. Two numerical examples are presented to verify the correctness of the theoretical results in this paper.

Combining the local boundary integral equation with the improved moving least-squares (IMLS) approximation, an improved local boundary integral equation (ILBIE) method for two-dimensional potential problems is presented in this paper. In the IMLS approximation, the weighted orthogonal functions are used as basis functions. The IMLS approximation has greater computational efficiency and precision than the existing moving least-squares (MLS) approximation and does not lead to an ill-conditioned equations system. The corresponding formulae of the ILBIE method are obtained. Comparing with the conventional local boundary integral equation (LBIE) method, the ILBIE method is a direct meshless boundary integral equation method in which the basic unknown quantity is the real solution of the nodal variables, and the boundary conditions can be implemented directly and easily as in the finite element method. The ILBIE method has greater computational efficiency and precision. Some numerical examples to demonstrate the efficiency of the method are presented in this paper.
