| Abstract: | Efficient and accurate large scale numerical modeling of wave propagation from deep water to the shoreline is difficult. The difficulty arises from the fact that such a simulation requires a large number of computational grid points and has to account for both the nonbreaking and breaking wave processes. In this study, two widely used wave models: the inviscid Boussinesq-equation-type- and the RANS-based- wave models are two-way-coupled to create a hybrid-wave model that can perform accurate and efficient large scale, nonbreaking and breaking, wave simulation. | |
