2 NEOWAVE Model Introduction Prior Model Validation Tohoku Tsunami Honolulu Coast Benchmark Cases BM1 BM2 BM5 Conclusions Outline

3 NEOWAVE Non-hydrostatic Evolution of Ocean Wave Governing Equations Depth-integrated, Non-hydrostatic Equations Weakly dispersive waves through non-hydrostatic pressure (Stelling and Zijlema, 2003; Yamazaki et al., 2009 & 2011) Numerical Schemes Semi-implicit, Finite Difference (FD) Model Explicit hydrostatic solution Implicit non-hydrostatic solution Two-Way, Grid-Nesting Scheme Standard grid refinement scheme for FD tsunami models Momentum Conserved Advection (MCA) Scheme Shock capturing scheme for FD models (Stelling and Duinmeijer, 2003; Yamazaki et al., 2009 & 2011)

4 Non-hydrostatic/Hydrostatic Hybrid Scheme Approximation of Energetic Breaking Waves as Bores Dispersive wave model generates artificial spike when wave front becomes steep at wave breaking or bore development Breaking region may consider hydrostatic for bore approximation - Hydrostatic pressure is main driving force - Non-hydrostatic pressure effects are negligible Check status of each cell every time step Breaking initiation Breaking termination 2 2 u v 0. 5 gd 2 2 u v gd Hydrostatic solution (TURN OFF non-hydrostatic) Non-hydrostatic solution (TURN ON non-hydrostatic) NO wave breaking
