摘要
A new coupling numerical wave model, based on both the Boundary Element Method (BEM) and the Volume Of Fluid (VOF) method, is established by taking advantages of the both methods to solve the wave-structure interaction problems. In this model, the wave transformation in front of structures is calculated by the 0-1 type BEM, and the intense wave motions near the structures are calculated by the VOF method. In this paper, the characteristics of the BEM and the VOF method are discussed first, and then the coupling treatments are described in detail. In the end, the accuracy and the validity of the coupling model are examined by comparing the numerical results with experiment results and other numerical results available for the interactions between regular waves with a monolayer horizontal plate.
