contents The Whitham Broer Kaup (WBK) equations provide a fundamental framework for modeling shallow water wave dynamics, effectively capturing both nonlinear and dispersive effects. In this study, we construct a new class of analytical and numerical solutions for the WBK system using Lie symmetry analysis. By determining an optimal system of one-dimensional subalgebras, we obtain symmetry reductions that lead to new kinds of exact wave solutions expressed in hyperbolic, trigonometric, and rational forms. The influence of key physical parameters on wave structure is systematically explored, revealing their role in shaping the velocity and surface profiles of the waves. An important aspect of this work is the application of the WBK model to tsunami wave propagation, demonstrating its capability to simulate the generation, evolution, and spatial spreading of long surface waves in coastal regions. This highlights the practical relevance of the WBK equations in geophysical and oceanographic contexts. Additionally, employing the direct multiplier method, we derive a complete set of local conservation laws for the governing WBK model, ensuring the preservation of key physical properties. These findings enhance the understanding of shallow water wave behavior, unify existing research, and provide a framework for further exploration.
