Summary and Conclusions The Irrotational Green-Naghdi equations are derived for finitewater-depth conditions, and tested numerically to show their self-convergence and accuracy. The linear and nonlinear dispersion ofthe permanent progressive wave solutions of the IGN equationsconverged to known exact solutions as the Level of the equationsincreases. The numerical solution of the IGN equations for un-steady problems, such as the run-up of solitary waves and nonlin-ear shoaling over a sloping beach, also converged. It appears thatthe IGN Level 3 equations can provide very accurate solutions formost engineering problems. The IGN Level 2 equations showedcomparable accuracy with the optimal WKGS equation set, whichis known to be the most accurate Boussinesq-type model.Once the accuracy of the IGN equations at each level is iden-tified, the level can be optimally chosen in future application ofthe model to various water-wave problems.
