TSUNAMI SCIENCE RESEARCH LABORATORY

Solitary wave interacting with a circular cylinder

In this case, a non-breaking solitary is interacting with a circular cylinder. An unstructered mesh is adopted. The numerical solution is compared with the lab data.

Mesh and setup

 

Comparison

The numerical solution is compared with the lab data. The comparison is good in terms of the phase and free-surface elevation.
