Investigations are presented, on some effects of nonlinearity in the motion of shallow water wave spectra. The waves were generated, mechanically in a laboratory wave flume with fixed bottom. Essential differences with the linear dispersion relation are found, showing vanishing dispersivity of higher frequency spectral components in strongly nonlinear spectra. The mean frequency increases with decreasing water depth. The relation of the peak frequency to the mean frequency varied in the experiments from 0.9 to 0.5, for deep to shallow water wave spectra respectively.

In this article, we investigate a two-dimensional generalized shallow water wave equation. Lie symmetries of the equation are computed first and then used to perform symmetry reductions. By utilizing the three translation symmetries of the equation, a fourth-order ordinary differential equation is obtained and solved in terms of an incomplete elliptic integral. Moreover, with the aid of Kudryashov’s approach, more closed-form solutions are constructed. In addition, energy and linear momentum conservation laws for the underlying equation are computed by engaging the multiplier approach as well as Noether’s theorem.
