Abstract

Wave Run Up and Reflection on Tridimensional Virtual Breakwater

The paper provides some results of a new procedure (CAD and CFD) to analyze the hydrodynamic aspects of the interactions between virtual maritime emerged breakwaters and regular waves. The structure is modeled into numerical domain, very much like the real world or the physical laboratory testing, by overlapping individual three-dimensional elements (AccropodeTM), and the computational grid is fitted so as to provide enough computational nodes within the flow paths.
