Water-wave problem for a vertical shell

Nikolai G. Kuznecov, Vladimir G. Maz'ya (2001)

Mathematica Bohemica

The uniqueness theorem is proved for the linearized problem describing radiation and scattering of time-harmonic water waves by a vertical shell having an arbitrary horizontal cross-section. The uniqueness holds for all frequencies, and various locations of the shell are possible: surface-piercing, totally immersed and bottom-standing. A version of integral equation technique is outlined for finding a solution.

Zero-Dissipation Limit for Nonlinear Waves

Jerry L. Bona, Jiahong Wu (2010)

ESAIM: Mathematical Modelling and Numerical Analysis

Evolution equations featuring nonlinearity, dispersion and dissipation are considered here. For classes of such equations that include the Korteweg-de Vries-Burgers equation and the BBM-Burgers equation, the zero dissipation limit is studied. Uniform bounds independent of the dissipation coefficient are derived and zero dissipation limit results with optimal convergence rates are established.
