A particle image velocimetry investigation on laboratory surf-zone breaking waves over a sloping beach
Olivier Kimmoun,Hubert Branger +1 more
TL;DR: Particle image velocimetry (PIV) measurements were performed in a wave tank under water waves propagating and breaking on a 1/15 sloping beach as mentioned in this paper, where the wave transformation occurred in the surf zone over a large domain covering several wavelengths from incipient breaking to swash zone beyond the shoreline.
Journal ArticleDOI
Modulation Instability and Phase-Shifted Fermi-Pasta-Ulam Recurrence.
Olivier Kimmoun,Hung-Chu Hsu,Hubert Branger,M. S. Li,You Yi Chen,C. Kharif,Miguel Onorato,Edmund J. R. Kelleher,Bertrand Kibler,Nail Akhmediev,Amin Chabchoub +10 more
TL;DR: Evidence is reported of the effect of dissipation on FPU cycles in a super wave tank, namely their shift in a determined order, and it is shown that ideal NLSE breather solutions can describe such dissipative nonlinear dynamics.
Journal ArticleDOI
Experimental observation of dark solitons on the surface of water.
Amin Chabchoub,Amin Chabchoub,Olivier Kimmoun,Hubert Branger,Norbert Hoffmann,Norbert Hoffmann,Davide Proment,Miguel Onorato,Miguel Onorato,Nail Akhmediev +9 more
TL;DR: The first ever observation of dark soliton on the surface of water takes the form of an amplitude drop of the carrier wave which does not change shape in propagation and may improve the understanding of the nonlinear dynamics of water waves at finite depths.
Journal ArticleDOI
Modeling coastal tsunami hazard from submarine mass failures: effect of slide rheology, experimental validation, and case studies off the US East Coast
Stephan T. Grilli,Mike Shelby,Olivier Kimmoun,Guillaume Dupont,Dmitry Nicolsky,Gangfeng Ma,James T. Kirby,Fengyan Shi +7 more
TL;DR: In this article, two types of two-layer SMF tsunami generation models are used, in which the bottom (slide) layer is depth-integrated and represented by either a dense Newtonian fluid or a granular flow, and intergranular stresses are governed by Coulomb friction (Savage and Hutter model).
Journal ArticleDOI
Shallow water waves generated by subaerial solid landslides
TL;DR: Wang et al. as mentioned in this paper used a simplified shallow water model to derive relevant scaling laws for subaerial landslide-generated tsunamis and validated the codes for this case of landslides.
