Comparative analysis of bore propagation over long distances using conventional linear and KdV-based nonlinear Fourier transform

In this paper, we study the propagation of bores over a long distance. We employ experimental data as input for numerical simulations using COULWAVE. The experimental flume is extended numerically to an effective relative length of x/h=3000, which allows all far-field solitons to emerge from the undular bore in the simulation data. We apply the...
