Shallow water equation

Voting period is over. Please don't add any new votes. Voting period ends on 7 Oct 2010 at 10:36:28 (UTC)

Output from a (linearised) shallow water equation model of water in a bathtub. The water experiences 5 splashes which generate surface gravity waves that propagate away from the splash locations and reflect off of the bathtub walls

Reason

Pretty, but no real EV since there is no detail about the equation this models or the linearization made (there are a number of possibilities).

    • I think it's fairly obvious that it refers to this form: [1] since DanCopsey was the only contributor to the article, and also the uploader of the image. That's him I think: [2] His email address is easy to find if you want to contact him for more details. Papa Lima Whiskey (talk) 23:18, 23 September 2010 (UTC)
