Analytical and Rothe time-discretization method for a Boussinesq-type system over an uneven bottom (Q2046002)

The authors consider the analytical and numerical resolution of a 2D version of a Boussinesq-type model which occur in the water wave propagation. The time discretization is performed using a finite-difference second-order Crank-Nicholson-type scheme, and then, at each time step, the spatial variables are discretized with an efficient Galerkin/Finite Element Method (FEM) using triangular-finite elements based on 2D piecewise-linear Lagrange interpolation. Some numerical tests are presented to support the theoretical results.
