Numerical realization of the generalized Carrier-Greenspan transform for the shallow water wave equations

<p> Run-up of long waves in sloping U-shaped bays is studied analytically in the framework of the 1-D nonlinear shallow-water theory. By assuming that the wave flow is uniform along the cross-section, the 2-D nonlinear shallow-water equations are reduced to a linear semi-axis variable-coeffici...
