Abstract:
An analysis of an approximation to the rotating shallow-water
equations is presented. The approximation removes the fast waves and
is valid for physical boundaries but with prepared initial data.
In particular, the equations are decomposed into a part describing the
slow dynamics coupled to an equation describing the fast part. The basic
idea is one of enslaving in which the fast part of the solution is
expressed as a function of the slow part yielding an approximation to
the slow dynamics.
