Traditionally, the shallow-water equations have been formulated and developed within the Eulerian framework for studying shallow-water wave problems. In this paper, we present a Lagrangian-based approach based on Hamilton’s variational principle to derive an extended displacement shallow-water equation (EDSWE). Using elliptic functions, we obtain exact traveling wave solutions of the resulting EDSWE. The conditions for the formation of various wave types—including cnoidal waves, looped waves, and peaked waves—are systematically analyzed and summarized. The proposed displacement method, grounded in the Lagrangian description, provides an analytical framework for hydrodynamic problems and can be applied to symplectic formulations in fluid mechanics.
