Relation between Wave Characteristics of Cnoidal Wave Theory Derived by Laitone and by Chappelear

By Masataka YAMAGUCHIand Yoshito TSUCHIYA (Manuscriptreceived October5, 1974)

Abstract This paper presents the relation between wave characteristicsof the secondorder approxi- mate solutionof the cnoidal wave theory derived by Laitone and by Chappelear. If the expansionparameters Lo and L3in the Chappeleartheory are expanded in a series of the ratio of to water depth and the expressionsfor wave characteristics of the secondorder approximatesolution of the cnoidalwave theory by Chappelearare rewritten in a series form to the second order of the ratio, the expressions for wave characteristics of the cnoidalwave theory derived by Chappelearagree exactly with the ones by Laitone, whichare convertedfrom the depth below the wave trough to the mean water depth. The limitingarea betweenthese theories for practical applicationis proposed,based on numerical comparison. In addition, somewave characteristicssuch as wave energy, energy in the cnoidal and so on are calculated.

1. Introduction In recent years, the various higher order solutions of finite waves based on the perturbation method have been extended with the progress of wave theories. For example, systematic deviations of the cnoidal wave theory, which is a nonlinear shallow water wave theory, have been made by Kellern, Laitone2), and Chappelears> respectively. All are based on a perturbation expansion method, which suitably stretches the vertical dimension, as developed by Friedrichs4). Keller confirmed the results of Korteveg de Vrieso which is a primary intuitive theory. The second approximation of the cnoidal wave theory was derived primarily by Laitone and in succession the third one by Chappelear. However, the mutual relation between them is not made clear, since expressions for these solutions are different from each other. In this paper, the analytical relation between wave characteristics of the second approximate solution of the cnoidal wave theory by Laitone and by Chappelear is presented and the limiting area between the theories for practical use is proposed from the comparison of the numerical results on the expansion parameters. In addition, some wave characteristics such as wave energy, energy flux in the conidal waves and so on are calculated. As already pointed out by Stokeso, the physical definition is necessary to determine the wave celerity in the extension to the higher order approximate solution of finite amplitude wave theory. The Stokes second definition of wave celerity is used by Laitone and the first definition by Chappelear, although recently 218 M. Y AMAGUCHI and Y. TSUCHIY A

Tsuchiya, one of the authors and Yasuda" calculated a new cnoidal wave theory, making use of the Gardner-Morikawa transform, in which the deficiency is overcome. As the cnoidal wave theory by the same definition must be used in the comparison, the cnoidal wave theory recalculated by the authorsg), using the second definition, is utilized in place of the one by Chappelear.

2. Second Order Approximate Solution of Cnoidal Wave Theory

If the coordinate system x, z as shown in Fig. 1 is taken, the wave characteristics by the second approximate solution of the conidal wave theory derived by Laitoneo, which is converted from the depth below the wave trough It, to the mean water depth h and from the coordinate system taken at the depth of the wave trough to the one at the mean water depth are given by the following equations respectively ; for the wave celerity c and the wave length L, they are written as

It is assumed that the small expansion parameters Lo and L3 are respectively expanded into series forms of H/h as Lo—alcji)+a2c/\H h) + (16) La=b,(1)+1),(li)2 + (17) in which a, and bi are the coefficients to be determined. Then, substituting Eqs. (16) and (17) into Eqs.

In the next, if Eqs. (18) and (19) are substituted into Eqs. (8) and (9) in order to convert the wave celerity and the wave length in the Chappelear theory into the explicit expressions of the ratio H/h, the calculation finally yields

(3) into Eqs. (1), (2), (4), (5), (6) and (7), it is clear that the expressions for the wave characteristics in the Chappelear theory agree exactly with the ones in the Laitone theory. The second approximate solution of the cnoidal waves by Laitone corresponds to the one by Chappelear in which the expansion parameters Lo and L3 are expanded into the power series of H/h and the expressions for the wave characteristics are truncated to the second order of H/h. Conversely speaking, this is due to the fact that in the Laitone theory, the original expansion parameters are expanded into the power series of H/h and truncated to the second order of H/h as well as the standing long wave theory of finite amplitude derived by Shutom as the nonlinear interaction problem of the cnoidal waves. Apart from the practical applicability for the prediction of the wave character- istics, it may therefore be concluded that the solution by Chappelear is more exact than the one by Laitone, as far as mathematical formulation is concerned. 222 M.

cnoidal wave theories agree with each other in the case of larger value of h/H, while the result by the Chappelear theory becomes slightly larger than the one by the Laitone theory, as the value of h/H decreases. The vertical distribution of the horizontal water particle velocity at the wave crest phase is compared in Fig. 3. As already pointed out by Iwagaki and Sakaim, the Laitone theory gives the shape of the vertical distribution of the horizontal water particle velocity at the wave crest phase which increases rapidly toward the water surface from the bottom, in comparison with the Chappelear theory and the previous theories in the case of smaller value of h/H. This is caused by formulating the wave characteristics explicitly on H/h in the Laitone theory. Fig. 4 is the comparison between the expansion parameters computed directly from Eqs. (10) and (11) in the Chappelear theory for the given values of K and h/H and the ones from Eqs. (18) and (19) taking into account to the second order of H/h in the case in which the Chappelear theory coincides with the Laitone theory, as described already. The solid and broken lines in the figure correspond to the former and latter cases respectively. The results computed from the latter equations deviate rapidly from the ones from the former equations with decrease of h/H and moreover the tendency for L3 is more prominent than the one for Lo. Fig. 5 gives the degree of the mutual difference between the parameters computed exactly using Eqs. (10) and (11) and those computed approximately using Eqs. (18) and (19). In the figure, 50 % (L0) means that the degree of deviation between the parameter Lo computed by the two methods is 50 percent and the broken line indicates the breaking criterion computed by the Chappelear theory under the assumption that the horizontal water particle velocity of the wave crest phase at the water surface becomes to be equal to the wave celerity at the wave breakig. The figure shows that the region in which the degree of deviation for both the parameters Lo and L3 is insignificant is limited to the higher value of h/H. It is also found that the region for L0 is considerably wider than the region for L3 in the same percentage. Similarly, the ratio of the difference between the computed results on the wave characteristics by both the theories is given in Fig. 6. In the figure, no is the wave crest height above the still water level at the wave crest phase, u, uo and uo are the horizontal water particle velocities of the wave crest phase at the water surface, the mean water level and the bottom, po and p, the wave of the wave crest phase at the mean water level and the bottom and win.. (-0.2) is the maximum vertical water particle velocity at the location of z/h= —0.2 respectively. It is found that although the magnitude of the errors due to the approximation mentioned above is different from each other in the computed results of the wave characteristics, the effects of the approximation on u0/ ^ u0/ gh p,/pgh and w„,„0 (-0.2)/ gh are more clearly prominent than those on the other wave char- acteristics. Also, these effects on the ratio of hit and wmax ( —0.2): gh are 1/2 times and 3/2 times respectively of the effect on the parameter L0 in the case of the larger- value of h/H, as would be made clear from the comparison between each equation.

Since the Laitone theory is regarded as an approximation of the Chappelear theory on the expansion parameters Lc, and L3, as mentioned previously, the limiting region of applicability of the cnoidal wave theories for the various wave characteris- tics has to be determined only by bounding the limiting region for the parameters L, and L3.

Fig. 7 shows the limiting area of applicability for practical purposes between both the theories, in which the degree of deviation between the computed results on each wave characteristic by both the theories is roughly 20 % of the one at the breaking point except for the wave celerity in the case in which the difference is not so significant for practical computation. The limiting area is composed of the overlapped area in which the degree of difference for L3 is smaller than 30 96 and the degree for Lo 6 % in the case of the smaller value of e and 2 % in the case of the larger value of e. In the figure, the region corresponding to K3 is the area of applicability for the Iwagaki hyperbolic wave theory's), which is derived from the Laitone theory under the condition that r= 1 and E =1 but IC=7>0. Within the limiting area, the degree of daviation between the computed results on the wave characteristics by both the theories is less than 0.7% for zzoh, 6% for u,/ 1./gh , 2 % for u0/ ^gh . 8 % for zit/ ^gh , 0.2 % for c/ ‘'gh, 3 % for h; L, 0.7 % for po' pgh, 8 % for pb/pgh and 9 96 for wt,, (-2.0)/ ^gh respectively. Accordingly, the cnoidal wave theory by Laitone is only applicable in the shaded area under the above criteria and the theory by Chappelear must be used in the other region. 228 M. YAMAGUCHI and Y. TSUCHIY A

Also, the hyperbolic wave theory by Iwagaki must be used in the region of K more than 0.98 (K73) of the shaded area. According to the above considerations, the errors due to the approximation should be previously estimated from Fig. 6 wIllen applying the cnoidal wave theory by Laitone and the hyperbolic wave theory for the calculation of each wave charac- teristic.

5. Some Calculations on Wave Characteristics

According to Whithami,,, the density and flux of mass, and energy in water waves are defined respectively as

(a) Mass: Po=5'pdz (26) Q0= -ft pudz (27) (b) Momentum : P1=5 pudz (28) -h(p+ple2)dz (29) (c) Energy :- _„t±w+pgzidz 2)(30) Q2= -f2-1p(zi2-Ew2)+p+pgziudzft (31) in which P, and Q, indicate the density and flux respectively. The mean values of these quantities on a wave length are calculated using the second approximate solution of the cnoidal wave theory by Chappelear and by Laitone. If the expressions for the wave characteristics in the Chappelear theory are substituted into Eqs. (26), (27), (28) and (29), the calculation for the density and flux of mass and momentum yields

Po—ph (32) C20=P, =0 (33) 1 pgh212L3+L(,(K2i-x)+3L,32+8E0E3(0+r) 02{ _7 + 17K2+23K4+ 10(20+4—E (34) 10 K)} which are correct to the second order of the expansion parameters. The flux of mass and the density of momentum in waves calculated using the wave theory derived by the Stokes second definition of wave celerity vanish, as would be expected from the definition.

Using Eq. (11), the kinetic energy can be proved to be identical with the potential energy to the first approximation of the cnoidal wave theory. The energy partition to the second approximation, however is not in the same ratio. Accordingly, the density of wave energy is expressed as a sum of Eqs. (35) and (36) by the following equation.

These equations agree exactly with the ones by the Chappelear theory in the case in which the expansion parameters Lo and L3 are expanded into the power series of H/h and the expressions for the wave characteristics are truncated to the second order of H/h. Also, the energy transfer velocity can be given in an explicit form as (H/h) c0=Vgh+ 2E2 fE2—1 + 2 (2 —r2)(E/K) —3(E/K)2; {0 +30 _2 (46) +2(+0_70+7)(_E K)+ 12 (E2 2) ( t )2+ 12(K )3)1

Since the preceding wave theories are derived using the perturbation method, the expressions for the horizontal water particle velocity and the other wave characteristics in the theories are expressed as the infinite power series of small parameter e such as u= E eittt, in which Ili is the approximate solution correspond- ing to each order of r. Accordingly, in the calculation of Eqs. (27), (28), (29), (30) and (31) using the truncated series solution of the second order approximation, the contribution of the higher order terms beyond the third order e.g. ma to the results exsists in the mathematical formulation. However, this contribution is neglected in the calculation.

6. Conclusion

The relation between wave characteristics of the cnoidal wave theory derived by Laitone and by Chappelear was established. Expanding the parameters Lo and L3 in the Chappelear theory into the power series of H/h and rewritting the expressions for wave characteristics in the Chappelear theory into power series of H/h to the second order, it was proved that the second order approximate solution of the cnoidal wave theory by Laitone coincides with the one by Chappelear to the second order of H/h. And based on the numerical comparison between the expansion parameters computed exactly and the ones computed approximately to

1 h Relation between Wave Characteristics of Cnoidal Wave Theory 231 the second order of H/h, the limiting region of wave characteristics in which the approximate expansion of Lo and L3 in the Chappelear theory on the ratio of H/h is allowable was proposed for practical use. In addition, the density and flux of mass, momentum and energy were formulated using both the cnoidal wave theories of the second approximation as well as the energy tranfer velocity.
