In this paper, the development of a class of depth-integrated, phase-resolving models for
surface wave propagation, known as Boussinesq-type models (BTMs), is reviewed. This …

To describe the strongly nonlinear dynamics of waves propagating in the final stages of
shoaling and in the surf and swash zones, fully nonlinear models are required. The ability of …

The energy dissipation in the surf-zone due to wave breaking is inherently accounted for in
shock-capturing non-hydrostatic wave models, but this requires high vertical resolutions. To …

This study presents a numerical investigation of the solitary wave breaking over a slope by
using the multi-phase smoothed particle hydrodynamics (SPH) method. Four different …

The fully nonlinear and weakly dispersive Green–Naghdi model for shallow water waves of
large amplitude is studied. The original model is first recast under a new formulation more …

In this paper, a new method to handle wave breaking in fully non-linear Boussinesq-type
models is presented. The strategy developed to treat wave breaking is based on a …

We introduce a new class of two-dimensional fully nonlinear and weakly dispersive Green–
Naghdi equations over varying topography. These new Green–Naghdi systems share the …

This study presents an empirical parameterization of wave front slope angle used in the
characterization of shoaling and breaking waves in nearshore environment. A large amount …

The non-hydrostatic wave model SWASH is compared to flume observations of infragravity
waves propagating over a plane slope and barred beach. The experiments cover a range of …

A new methodology is presented to handle wave breaking over complex bathymetries in
extended two-dimensional Boussinesq-type (BT) models which are solved by an …
