Head-on collision between two hydroelastic solitary waves with Plotnikov-Toland's plate model

ABSTRACT: Head-on collision between two hydroelastic solitary waves propagating at the surface of an incompressible and ideal fluid covered by a thin ice sheet is analytically studied by means of a singular perturbation method. The ice sheet is represented by the Plotnikov-Toland model with the help...
