Wave Run-Up Using Micro- & Mesoscopic Approaches

This project is concerned with the development of numerical solvers for wave run-up predictions. We investigate near-shore processes using micro- and mesoscopic approaches. Our models are fully nonlinear and we are currently looking into understanding wave breaking and the interaction with sediments.

Keyphrases: Wave run-up, wave breaking, sediments, micro/mesoscopic formulations, tsunamis
