Abstract
In this paper, a shock-capturing numerical model, based on the combined solution of Boussinesq and nonlinear shallow water equations is applied to the simulation of wave runup, overtopping and wave train propagation over impermeable, emerged and low-crested, structures. In order to improve the performances of the scheme at wet-dry interfaces, a numerical treatment is introduced to provide well-balancing of advective fluxes and source terms. One- and two-dimensional test cases are presented to validate the performances of the model under both regular and irregular wave conditions.
