In this talk, we present a new systematic method to obtain some discrete numerical models for incompressible free-surface flows.
The method consists in first discretizing the Euler equations with respect to one variable, keeping the other ones unchanged and then
performing an asymptotic analysis on the resulting system. For the sake of simplicity, we choose to illustrate this method in the context of the Peregrine asymptotic regime, that is we propose an alternative numerical scheme for the so-called Peregrine equations.
We then study the linear dispersion characteristics of our new scheme and present several numerical experiments to measure the relevance of the method.
