SPH study of water wave interaction with solid / porous boundaries

In this paper, a SPH method is presented for studying the interaction between water and porous structures. Porous particles are deployed in the background to facilitate the determination of the permeability of the structures and the modification of the apparent density of the particles inside the porous material. The proposed model gives the results that are in a good agreement with the past experimental results. The model has been applied to study the solitary wave propagation through a porous block located on a sloped beach. The results indicate the present model’s good capability for simulating the water flow past various porous materials including soils, wave absorbing blocks and coastal vegetation.
