The global dissipative and multipeakon dissipative behavior of the two-component Camassa-Holm shallow water system after wave breaking was studied in this paper. The underlying approach is based on a skillfully defined characteristic and a set of newly introduced variables which transform the original system into a Lagrangian semilinear system. It is the transformation, together with the associated properties, that allows for the continuity of the solution beyond collision time to be established, leading to a uniquely global dissipative solution, which constructs a semigroup, and the multipeakon dissipative solution.

This paper investigates the multipeakon dissipative behavior of the modified coupled two-component Camassa-Holm system arisen from shallow water waves moving. To tackle this problem, we convert the original partial differential equations into a set of new differential equations by using skillfully defined characteristic and variables. Such treatment allows for the construction of the multipeakon solutions for the system. The peakon-antipeakon collisions as well as the dissipative behavior (energy loss) after wave breaking are closely examined. The results obtained herein are deemed valuable for understanding the inherent dynamic behavior of shallow water wave breaking.

This study develops a new well-balanced scheme for the one-dimensional shallow water system over irregular bed topographies with wet/dry fronts, in a Godunov-type finite volume framework. A new reconstruction technique that includes flooded cells and partially flooded cells and preserves the non-negative values of water depth is proposed. For the wet cell, a modified revised surface gradient method is presented assuming that the bed topography is irregular in the cell. For the case that the cell is partially flooded, this paper proposes a special reconstruction of flow variables that assumes that the bottom function is linear in the cell. The Harten–Lax–van Leer approximate Riemann solver is applied to evaluate the flux at cell faces. The numerical results show good agreement with analytical solutions to a set of test cases and experimental results.
