contents The shallow-water system is a standard model for long waves in shallow water. The system is hyperbolic and, for a large class of initial data, solutions develop steep gradients leading to shock formation in finite time. Since such singularities violate the long-wave assumptions underlying the model, their appearance limits the regime of validity of the equations. In this work, we introduce a regularized shallow-water system in which the nonlinear terms are modified by a bounded operator. This regularization removes the standard derivative-steepening mechanism responsible for shock formation in the classical system while remaining consistent with the long-wave regime. We establish local well-posedness and small-data global well-posedness in Sobolev spaces that exclude singularity formation. In addition, numerical simulations indicate that the system admits solitary-wave solutions.
