CADMAS-SURF is a useful numerical model to design maritime structure. Applicability of CADMAS-SURF for predictions of breaking waves or irregular waves has been studied. However, there are not many studies about the wave run-up problems. It is necessary to investigate the applicability of CADMAS-SURF for predictions of wave run-up.
This paper presents an investigation for applicability of CADMAS-SURF for predictions of wave run-up. In order to verify the accuracy of CADMAS-SURF, CADMAS-SURF was applied to several wave run-up conditions. The computational results are compared with the experimental results to show the validity and efficiency of CADMAS-SURF. In order to compare the numerical results using different mesh size, several numerical studies were carried out. The present study proposed the calculation conditions for numerical simulation.
