Effects of Waveform Distribution of Tsunami-Like Solitary Wave on Run-up on Impermeable Slope [PDF]
For decades, solitary waves have commonly been used to simulate tsunami conditions in numerical studies. However, the main component of a tsunami waveform acts at completely different spatial and temporal distributions than a solitary waveform.

Predicting site-specific storm wave run-up [PDF]
AbstractStorm wave run-up causes beach erosion, wave overtopping, and street flooding. Extreme runup estimates may be improved, relative to predictions from general empirical formulae with default parameter values, by using historical storm waves and eroded profiles in numerical runup simulations.

The VOLNA code for the numerical modelling of tsunami waves: generation, propagation and inundation [PDF]
A novel tool for tsunami wave modelling is presented. This tool has the potential of being used for operational purposes: indeed, the numerical code \VOLNA is able to handle the complete life-cycle of a tsunami (generation, propagation and run-up along ...

Simulating three dimensional wave run-up over breakwaters covered by antifer units
The paper presents the numerical analysis of wave run-up over rubble-mound breakwaters covered by antifer units using a technique integrating Computer-Aided Design (CAD) and Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) software. Direct application of Navier-Stokes

Physical simulation of resonant wave run-up on a beach [PDF]
Nonlinear wave run-up on the beach caused by a harmonic wave maker located at some distance from the shore line is studied experimentally. It is revealed that under certain wave excitation frequencies, a significant increase in run-up amplification is ...

Numerical Simulation of Propagation and Run-Up of Long Waves in U-Shaped Bays
Wave propagation and run-up in U-shaped channel bays are studied here in the framework of the quasi-1D Saint-Venant equations. Our approach is numerical, using the momentum conserving staggered-grid (MCS) scheme, as a consistent approximation of the ...
