Overview

The goal of this verification test to asses the model performance in simulating nonlinear runup/rundown over a plane slopt. Carrier et al. (2003) presented an analytical solution to the nonlinear shallow water equations over a plane slope for several initial wave forms. Here the analytical solution for a the initial wave form given by leading-depression N-wave is used.

Initial Condition

The bed has a constant slope of 1/10 with the initial shoreline located at x=0. Figure 1 shows the initial water level (is given by a leading depression N-wave (characteristic of the waves caused by submarine landslides). The initial current velocity is equal to zero everywhere.

Figure 1. Initial water level


Model Setup

The computational grid has a 3 m resolution for x<300 and increases to 10 m with an aspect ratio of 1.05. The general model parameters used in the simulation are shown in Table 1.

Table 1. Model Parameters

Parameter Value
Time step 0.1 s
Ramp period 0.0 s
Drying depth 0.01 m
Wall friction Off
Mixing terms Off
Manning's coefficient 0.0

Results

Figure 2 shows a comparison of computed and analytical water surface elevations near the shoreline at 4 different time steps. The goodness of fit statistics are shown in Table 2.

A comparison of the calculated and analytical shoreline position are shown in Figure 3.
