【 摘 要 】

Wave propagation over a semicircular obstacle is studied. This problem is related to the design of semicircular breakwaters. These breakwaters are expected to have enhanced stability and were constructed in various places in China. Enhanced numerical modeling is done taking viscosity into account. The fifth order space accurate weighted essentially non-oscillatory (WENO) method is used to discretize the convection terms.As a result accurate results are obtained using simple options (uniform Cartesian grid, level set method). Wave generation is done using a numerical piston wave maker that is analogous to the real experiment. The model results are compared with free surface visualization and pressure measurements. Various features of the problem including wave drag and the flow field are revealed.
