🌊 Ocean Wave Simulator - 2D Cross-Section, Orbits and Shoaling

2D companion of the Ocean Wave Simulator: a side cross-section of a linear water wave running onto a sloping beach, with the full dispersion relation, particle orbits, shoaling and breaking, phase and group speed against depth, energy flux and checks against deep-water and Green's-law formulas.
