By applying the multiple-scales method in the context of a semi-discrete approximation, we derive an effective nonlinear Schrödinger equation that characterizes the evolution of rotational and slowly varying envelope waves from the aforementioned discrete motion equations. We thus show that this flexible mechanical metamaterial chain supports envelope vector solitons where the rotational component has the form of either a bright or a dark soliton. In addition, due to nonlinear coupling, the longitudinal displacement displays kink-like profiles thus forming the 2-components vector soliton.

In this paper and in the context of random variables, the focus is on a sensitivity analysis addressing the question of how the uncertainty of the input data (subgrade parameters) influences the obtained results (displacements). Two different methods of stochastic analysis are presented—the intrusive polynomial chaos approach supported by the Galerkin projection and Monte Carlo simulation—and compared by using an example of wave propagation in the elastic half-plane.

Our method employs the “shooting method” a technique for approximating solutions to differential equations by iteratively applying initial conditions. We introduce a novel momentum cost function that streamlines angle determination in anisotropic environments, a significant departure from conventional practices. Numerical validations demonstrate the robustness of our approach, confirming its efficacy in handling both sharp and gradual refractive index changes with high accuracy.

A modified shallow-water model considering the effect of friction coefficient as a function of several wave characteristics was developed. The model was solved numerically using a staggered finite volume model. The numerical model was validated using experimental data. Good agreement was observed between the experimental and numerical results, particularly in terms of the wave amplitude and phase. A genetic algorithm was used to derive empirical formulas using the friction coefficient as a function of different vegetation and wave parameters. The results showed that increasing the leaf thickness increased the friction coefficient and reduced the wave transmission. However, increasing the meadow length had a greater effect than increasing the leaf thickness. An emergent meadow covered the entire water column. Hence, it yielded the highest friction coefficient and wave transmission reduction among all tested submergence conditions. A sensitivity analysis was performed to assess the effects of the wave height, wave period, and leaf thickness. The results indicated that the maximum reduction in wave transmission was achieved under emergent conditions with high wave energies, short wavelengths, and thick leaves. This was attributed to enhanced wave–vegetation interaction, wave breaking, and energy dissipation. The observations of this study will aid coastal engineers in selecting the optimal leaf height, leaf thickness, and meadow length to achieve the desired reduction in wave transmission.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":49367,"journal":{"name":"Wave Motion","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":2.1,"publicationDate":"2024-07-20","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141953088","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"物理与天体物理","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
