\chapter{SWASH model}
|
|
|
|
\section{1D model}
|
|
|
|
In order to find out if the reflection induced by the breakwater has an
|
|
influence on the sea state at the buoy's location, a one-dimensional model of
|
|
the zone between the buoy and the breakwater was created.
|
|
|
|
The considered domain is \SI{1450}{\m} long, with \SI{1250}{\m} between the
|
|
buoy and the breakwater, and a further \SI{200}{\m} offshore of the buoy.
|
|
The model is a 10 layers swash model accounting for porous media in near the
|
|
breakwater. The model was adapted from PA Poncet.
|
|
|
|
\subsection{Model 1}
|
|
|
|
A first run was produced in order to test the model with a water level of
|
|
\SI{0.5}{\m} using the measured spectrum from 2017-02-28 as the offshore
|
|
boundary condition and a sommerfeld radiation condition on the breakwater
|
|
boundary. The model was run over a duration of 30 minutes.
|
|
|
|
The same model was implemented without the breakwater (by forcing a minimum
|
|
depth) with an added \SI{250}{\m} sponge layer at the shorewards boundary.
|
|
|
|
The reflection coefficient at the buoy's location was computed using
|
|
a PUV method \parencite{huntley1999use}.
|
|
|
|
The results are displayed in \autoref{fig:swash_1_R}. Two methods of
|
|
calculating the reflection were used \parencite{huntley1999use}, the second one
|
|
might be wrongly implemented, and the first one might be subject to
|
|
noise-induced bias.

\subsection{Model 2}
|
|
|
|
An attempt at running the model with the correct water level (\SI{4.5}{\m}) was
|
|
made without success, as the model does not seem to be able to compute
|
|
overtopping. Changing the boundary condition at the breakwater does not fix the
|
|
issue, and the model is not able to run with water on both sides of the
|
|
breakwater as the initial condition.
