摘要
Based on the Navier-Stokes (N-S) equations for viscous, incompressible fluid and the VOF method, 2-D and 3-D Numerical Wave Tanks (NWT) for nonlinear shallow water waves are built. The dynamic mesh technique is applied, which can save computational resources dramatically for the simulation of solitary wave propagating at a constant depth. Higher order approximation for cnoidal wave is employed to generate high quality waves. Shoaling and breaking of solitary waves over different slopes are simulated and analyzed systematically. Wave runup on structures is also investigated. The results agree very well with experimental data or analytical solutions.
