Source abstract
We study a linear model for the propagation of acoustic and surface gravity waves in a stratified free-surface ocean. A formulation was previously obtained by linearizing the compressible Euler equations. In this paper, we introduce a new formulation written with a generalized potential. The new formulation is obtained by studying the functional spaces and operators associated to the model. The mathematical study of this new formulation is easier and the discretization is also more efficient than for the previous formulation. We prove that both formulations are well-posed and show that the solution to the first formulation can be obtained from the solution to the second. Finally, the formulations are discretized using a spectral element method, and we simulate tsunamis generation from submarine earthquakes and landslides.
