Part I. Forced Generation and Stability of Nonlinear Waves. Part II. Chaotic Advection in a Rayleigh-Benard Flow
<p>Part I</p> <p>The forced Korteweg-de Vries model has been found satisfactory in predicting the periodic generation of upstream-advancing solitary waves by a bottom topography moving in a layer of shallow water with a steady transcritical velocity. It is also known that with cer...
