Extended Boussinesq Equations for Water-Wave Propagation in Porous Media

摘要

This paper 'presents a new Boussinesq-type model equations for describing nonlinear surface wave motions in porous media. The mathematical model based on perturbation approach reported by Hsiao et al. is derived. The drag force and -turbulence effect suggested by Sollitt and Cross are incorporated for observing the flow behaviors within porous media. Additionally, the approach, of Chen for: eliminating the depth-dependent terms in the momentum equations is also adopted. The model capability on an applicable water depth range is satisfactorily validated against the linear wave theory7l'he nonlinear properties of model equations are numerically confirmed by the weakly nonlinear theory of Liu and Wen. Numerical experiments of regular waves propagating in porous media over an impermeable submerged breakwater are performed and the nonlinear behaviors of wave energy transfer between different harmonics are also examined.
