Whitham equation
text:
In mathematical physics, the Whitham equation is a non-local model for non-linear dispersive waves. The equation is notated as follows: This integro-differential equation for the oscillatory variable η(x,t) is named after Gerald Whitham who introduced it as a model to study breaking of non-linear dispersive water waves in 1967. Wave breaking – bounded solutions with unbounded derivatives – for the Whitham equation has recently been proven. For a certain choice of the kernel K(x − ξ) it becomes t
