In previous computational fluid dynamics studies of breaking waves, there has been a
marked tendency to severely over-estimate turbulence levels, both pre-and post-breaking …

The performance of interFoam (a widely used solver within OpenFOAM®) in simulating the
propagation of a nonlinear (stream function solution) regular wave is investigated in this …

Subaerial landslides and volcano flank collapses can generate tsunamis with devastating
consequences. The lack of comprehensive models incorporating both the landslide and the …

Free surfaces and fluid interfaces are encountered in a wide variety of gas-liquid
configurations. Although many numerical approaches exist to solve such flows, there is still a …

A fully non-linear numerical wave tank (NWT), based on Computational Fluid Dynamics
(CFD), provides a useful tool for the analysis of coastal and offshore engineering problems …

Ocean wave energy is a rapidly developing sector and has the potential to contribute a
significant share to the global green energy transformation. However, nearshore coastal …

Simulations of spray breakup are challenging due to a wide range of different length and
time scales. While Volume-of-Fluid (VoF) is suited for the primary breakup, the secondary …

Landslide tsunamis and impulse waves are hazardous events with severe socioeconomic
impacts. A long standing problem with simulations of these events is the generation stage …

The flows past a vertical surface-piercing finite circular cylinder at Re= 2.7× 10 5 and Fr= 1.1
are investigated numerically by means of delayed detached-eddy simulation and a …

In wave-structure interaction, wave run-up is an important phenomenon that needs to be
considered in the design of offshore structures. A thorough understanding of the physics of …
