| Abstract: |
A new method valid for highly dispersive and highly nonlinear water waves is presented. It combines a time-stepping of the exact surface boundary conditions with an approximate series expansion solution to the Laplace equation in the interior domain involving up to fifth-derivative operators. A numerical model is developed in a single horizontal dimension and it is used to study modulational instability in deep water. |
