Abstract
In this work, we investigate a Boussinesq-type flow model for nonlinear dispersive waves by developing a computational model based on the finite element discretisation technique. Hermite interpolation functions were used to interpolate approximation elements. The system is modeled using a time dependent equation. Solution to the model is obtained, through a combination of two different schemes namely: a time approximation scheme (the Newmark Method) and the eigenvalue finite element method. Using this schemes, discrete solutions of the model at different time steps, were obtained. Graphical illustrations of solutions for the transient displacements at the center and right end of the rod are presented. The results obtained are very accurate and the model efficient.
