The Continued Development of the Third-generation Shallow Water Wave Model "SWAN"
نویسنده
چکیده
The main objective is to support and assist the development, validation and verification of the SWAN model and its use in operational conditions. The development is based on new scientific insights in the evolution of waves in shallow water. The verification and validation is based on field observations and laboratory experiments supplemented with numerical experiments. Operational use is supported with first-line assistance and diagnostics.

متن کاملInvestigating the Third Order Solitary Wave Generation Accuracy using Incompressible Smoothed Particle Hydrodynamics
This paper examines the generation and propagation of a Third order solitary water wave along the channel. First the Incompressible Smoothed Particle Hydrodynamics (ISPH) numerical method is described and the boundary condition handling method is presented. The numerical model is then used to simulate solitary wave propagation along the fixed depth channel. The numerical results are compared wi...
متن کاملNUMERICAL MODELING OF DIFFRACTION THROUGH A BREAKWATER GAP
Wave diffraction is a very important phenomenon in marine engineering and several models have been developed for its simulation. The new version of SWAN, a third generation spectral model, includes an approximation to wave diffraction. The approximation is based on the mild-slope equation for refraction and diffraction, omitting phase information. The objective this paper is to evaluate the per...
متن کاملOptimal High Frequency Cut-off in SWAN Wave Model
This study investigates the importance of selecting an appropriate cut-off frequency in the SWAN model when it is applied to areas with limited fetches. In SWAN, the cut-off frequency is a constant value set by user in the model, and its appropriate selection plays an important role in the accuracy and optimization of the wave model; very high value increases the computational cost and might le...
متن کاملHydrodynamic Modelling of Coral Reefs:Ningaloo Reef-Western Australia
As with all coral reef systems, the ecology of Ningaloo Reef is closely linked to water circulation which transport and disperse key material such as nutrients and larvae. Circulation on coral reefs may be driven by a number of forcing mechanisms including waves, tides, wind, and buoyancy effects. Surface waves interacting with reefs have long been known to dominate the currents on many coral r...
