摘要
In the peper, two approaches to enhance the computational accuracy and predictive capacity for current three-dimensional modelling of the response of shallow coastal waters to tropical cyclones have been analysed. Along the second approach, the mesh generation details of finite element methods for a complex domain with both the coastline and the path of landfall cyclone Orson in the Australian North West Shelf has been presented. The generated triangular element mesh could be taken as either the main mesh for depth-averaged modelling or the mesh of sea-surface elevation for three-dimensional modelling of the ocean response to the tropic cyclone.
