We consider the issue of wave breaking closure for Boussinesq type models, and attempt at
providing some more understanding of the sensitivity of some closure approaches to the …

Tsunami modeling and simulation has changed in the past few years more than it has in
decades, especially with respect to coastal inundation. Among other things, this change is …

We present a finite volume scheme for solving shallow water equations with source term due
to the bottom topography. The scheme has the following properties: it is high-order accurate …

To help produce accurate and consistent maritime hazard products, the National Tsunami
Hazard Mitigation Program organized a benchmarking workshop to evaluate the numerical …

The IANOS Medicane was one of the most severe storms that have formed in the
Mediterranean Sea with Category 2 Hurricane characteristics. The storm induced a …

In this paper, we present a new two-layer model of Savage–Hutter type to study submarine
avalanches. A layer composed of fluidized granular material is assumed to flow within an …

Within the framework of the Godunov-type cell-centered finite volume (CCFV) scheme, this
paper proposes a 2D well-balanced shallow water model for unstructured grids. In this …

Abstract The Tsunami-HySEA model is used to perform some of the numerical benchmark
problems proposed and documented in the “Proceedings and results of the 2011 NTHMP …

To simulate complex flows involving wet-dry fronts in irregular terrains over arbitrary beds,
this paper presents a 2D well-balanced shallow water flow model, based on an unstructured …

Resolving the shoreline undulation due to tidal excursion is a crucial part of modelling water
flow in estuaries and coastal areas. Nevertheless, maintaining positive water column depth …
