Investigation of Nonlinear Wave–Ice Interaction Using Parameter Study and Numerical Simulation

This paper investigates the question of the existence of nonlinear wave–ice interaction with the focus on nonlinear wave propagation and dispersion of waves. The scope of this investigation is to provide a better understanding of ice and wave conditions required to observe nonlinear wave effects under level ice. Direct numerical simulations of nonlinear waves in solid ice are performed within the weakly nonlinear Schrödinger equation (NLSE)...
