NUMERICAL SIMULATION OF THREE DIMENSIONAL TSUNAMIS WATER WAVES GENERATED BY LANDSLIDES: COMPARISON BETWEEN PHYSICAL MODEL RESULTS,VOF AND SPH

摘要

This paper presents new numerical simulations of water waves generated by landslides carried out using two numerical models based respectively on the Volumes of Fluids method and on the Smoothed Particle Hydrodynamics. Computations are compared with measurements obtained during a 3D experimental study, used here as benchmark for validating the numerical results.
