This book provides a comprehensive description of the latest theory-supported numerical technologies, as well as scientific and engineering applications for water surface waves. Its contents are crafted to cater to a step-by-step learning of computational wave dynamics and ocean wave modeling. It provides a comprehensive description from underlying theories of free-surface flows, to practical computational applications for coastal and ocean engineering on the basis of computational fluid dynamics (CFD).
The text may be used as a textbook for advanced undergraduate students and graduate students to understand the theoretical background of wave computations, and the recent progress of computational techniques for free-surface and interfacial flows, such as Volume of Fluid (VOF), Constrained Interpolation Profile (CIP), Lagrangian Particle (SPH, MPS), Distinct Element (DEM) and Euler-Lagrange Hybrid Methods.
It is also suitable for researchers and engineers who wish to apply CFD techniques to ocean modeling and practical coastal problems involving sediment transport, wave-structure interaction and surf zone flows.
Contents:
- Governing Equations (H Gotoh and A Okayasu)
- Turbulence Model (N Mori, Y Watanabe, T Suzuki and A Okayasu)
- Fundamental Computational Methods (Y Watanabe and N Mori)
- VOF Method (K Kawasaki)
- CIP Method (Y Watanabe)
- Particle Method (H Gotoh)
- Distinct Element Method (E Harada and H Gotoh)
- Euler–Lagrange Hybrid Method (H Mutsuda)
- Computational Wave Dynamics for Coastal and Ocean Research (Y Watanabe, N Mori, H Gotoh and A Okayasu)
Readership: Students (advanced undergraduate and above) of Coastal and Ocean Engineering, and Professionals.
Key Features:
- The specialized book provides a variety of the latest computing methods for free-surface flows, interfacial flows, and multi-phase flows
- It provides comprehensive interpretations of mathematical, physical and engineering aspects of the wave computation
- Illustrations of computational achievements in coastal and ocean research are also provided
