A Lagrangian numerical model called Smoothed Particle Hydrodynamics is used to analyze rip current system generated by a single bar and a rip channel. The pattern of the wave-induced circulation cell over the bar, the oppositely-rotating circulation cell on-shore and a strong seaward-directed current in the rip channel is modeled numerically. The mean horizontal variations of rip current system as well as three-dimensional circulations are studied. The results in three-dimensional space reveal the wave-current interaction and flow patterns in different parts of rip channel, bar, and the trough located near shore. For comparison to experimental data, Eulerian nodes are introduced to the numerical model and SPH interpolation over neighboring Lagrangian particles is implemented to find fluid parameters at those specific nodes. This methodology leads to a better understanding of depth-integrated flows and a more accurate comparison of numerical results with experimental results. Model predictions are compared to laboratory measurements of Drønen et al. (2002) and show good agreement, including mean velocity profiles, mean surface elevation and three-dimensional velocity components.

Abstract In this paper, a three-dimensional integrated numerical model for a small-scale case of wave-induced oscillatory soil response around a semi-buried pipeline (PORO-WSSI-PIPE 3D) is proposed. In this model, we combine the Reynolds-averaged Navier–Stokes (RANS) equations for the 3D wave motions and the Biot’s consolidation equations for a porous elastic seabed foundation through pressure continuity at common boundaries, with pipeline being an elastic and impermeable medium. The computational results are validated through comparison with previous analytical solutions and laboratory wave flume tests, obtaining good agreement. Following validation, the numerical model is applied to simulate wave-seabed-pipeline interaction with different obliquities between pipeline and incident wave, varying from 30 deg to 90 deg. Snapshots of wave-seabed-pipeline interaction, as well as dynamic pore pressure distributions at typical locations in the vicinity of a semi-buried pipeline, are obtained and analyzed. The three-dimensional consolidation process of seabed under gravitational forces including the body forces of a pipeline is also discussed.

Simulation Condition

Seabed consolidation state could be seen as the initial simulation condition for numerically simulating wave-induced seabed response. In this study, based on a three dimensional numerical model, effects of initial consolidation state on the 3D wave-induced unsaturated seabed response around mono-pile were investigated. By model application, the consolidation state of seabed around the pile foundation was described. Two common calculation approaches (seabed consolidation is considered or not) for wave-induced seabed response were compared by describing the distributions pattern of soil effective stresses and pore pressures around the pile. Significance of the consolidation state on seabed dynamic response against distances to pile was also carefully addressed. Numerical simulations indicated (1) the initial consolidation significantly increases the vertical effective normal stress in the vicinity of pile, (2) effects of the initial seabed consolidation on the wave-induced seabed response decrease with the increasing distance to the pile. This study suggests the initial consolidation should be considered in assessing the seabed stability for the design of the mono-pile foundation.

An advanced numerical model is presented for the simulation of wave-induced free-surface flow, utilizing an efficient hybrid parallel implementation. The model is based on the solution of the Navier–Stokes equations using large-eddy simulation of large-scale coastal free-surface flows. The three-dimensional immersed boundary method was used for the enforcement of the no-slip boundary condition on the bed surface. The water-air interface was tracked using the level-set method. The numerical model was effectively validated against laboratory measurements involving wave propagation over a flatbed with an elliptical shoal, whose presence induces combined wave refraction and diffraction phenomena. The parallel implementation of the model enabled the efficient simulation of depth-resolved, wave-induced, three-dimensional, free-surface flow; the model parallel efficiency and strong scaling are quantitatively demonstrated.
