General procedure for free-surface recovery from bottom pressure measurements: Application to rotational overhanging waves (2308.10567v1)
Published 21 Aug 2023 in physics.flu-dyn
Abstract: A novel boundary integral approach for the recovery of overhanging (or not) rotational (or not) water waves from pressure measurements at the bottom is presented. The method is based on the Cauchy integral formula and on an Eulerian--Lagrangian formalism to accommodate overturning free surfaces. This approach eliminates the need to introduce {\em a priori} a special basis of functions, providing thus a general means of fitting the pressure data and, consequently, recovering the free surface. The effectiveness and accuracy of the method are demonstrated through numerical examples.
