摘要
We formulate a method for calculating the velocities of the edges of dispersive shock waves that are generated after wave breaking of pulses during their propagation in a nonlinear medium. The method is based on the properties of the Whitham modulation system at its degenerate limits obtained for either a vanishing amplitude of oscillations at one edge or a vanishing wave number at the other edge.
