The numerical solution of 2D Boussinesq/Boussinesq models for internal waves with spectral methodsA. Durán
The numerical approximation of some Boussinesq systems in two spatial dimensions is here considered. The differential systems under study are proposed as asymptotic models for the propagation of waves along the interface of two layers of fluids with different densities and subjected to a Boussinesq physical regime in each layer. Well-posedness of the periodic initial-value problem (ivp) of the systems is first analized. Then, a discretization in space based on the spectral Fourier-Galerkin method is introduced and error estimates for the semidiscrete approximation are derived. Using an efficient time integrator, some numerical experiments to illustrate the performance of the discretization are presented.
