Abstract:

We consider Euler equations with stratified background state that is valid for internal water waves. The solution of the initial-boundary problem for Boussinesq approximation in the waveguide mode is presented in terms of the stream function. The orthogonal eigenfunctions describe a vertical shape of the internal wave modes and satisfy a Sturm-Liouville problem. The horizontal profile is defined by a coupled KdV system which is numerically solved via a finite-difference scheme for which we prove the convergence and stability. Together with the solution of the Sturm-Liouville problem, the stream functions give the internal waves profile.
