Generation of solitary waves by transcritical flow over a step

It is well-known that transcritical flow over a localised obstacle generates upstream and downstream nonlinear wavetrains. The flow has been successfully modeled in the framework of the forced Korteweg-de Vries equation, where numerical and asymptotic analytical solutions have shown that the upstrea...
