- Abstract
- In order to generate very long waves in laboratory, a bottom-tilting wave maker is designed and used at the University of Dundee. This new type of wave maker can produce waves longer than solitary waves in terms of the effective wavelength, which provides better long wave model. Nonlinear and dispersive numerical models are built for modelling the wave tank. A shock-capturing finite volume scheme with high-order reconstruction method is used to solve the governing equations. By comparing to the experimental measurements, the numerical models are verified and able to approximate the resulting waves in the wave tank.
