Abstract: The paper is focused on the details of the emergence of Korteweg–de Vries (KdV) solitons from an initial harmonic excitation. Although the problem is a classical one, numerical simulations over a large range of dispersion parameters in the long run have demonstrated new features: the existence of soliton ensembles including also virtual (hidden) solitons and the periodic patterns of the wave-profile maxima.
