Abstract

In this paper we review the history and current state-of-the-art in modelling of long nonlinear dispersive waves. For the sake of conciseness of this review we omit the unidirectional models and focus especially on some classical and improved BOUSSINESQ-type and SERRE-GREEN-NAGHDI equations. Finally, we propose also a unified modelling framework which incorporates several well-known and some less known dispersive wave models. The present manuscript is the first part of a series of two papers. The second part will be devoted to the numerical discretization of a practically important model on moving adaptive grids.
