Large floating covers on the water surface, such as very large floating platforms or ice covers
in the marginal ice zone, can exhibit viscoelastic response during their interactions with
progressive gravity waves. When the wave magnitude is exceedingly large, overtopping can
also occur with wave overwash appearing on top of the cover. In the present study, we
investigate the numerical simulations of the transient wave overwash on the viscoelastic
floating cover using the smoothed particle hydrodynamics (SPH) approach. In particular, a …
