Trapped Solitary Waves in a Periodic External Force: A Numerical Investigation Using the Whitham Equation and the Sponge Layer Method

This paper concerns the interaction between solitary waves on the surface of an ideal fluid and a localized external force, which models a moving disturbance on the free surface or an obstacle moving at the bottom of a channel. Previous works have investigated this interaction under the assumption t...
