Numerical simulation of waves generated by a moving pressure field

► Simulation of waves generated by moving pressure fields using Boussinesq equations. ► Discretization of equations with surface pressure term for three different modes. ► Comparison of analytical solution of 1-D long wave equations for a moving pressure. ► 2-D simulations of different shaped pressure fields for a range of Froude numbers. ► Numerically obtained wedge angles are compared with Havelock's analytical formulas.
