Abstract

A model for sediment suspension is developed for the Smoothed Hydrodynamics Hydrodynamics (SPH) method. A sub-particle scheme is included into the scheme in order to capture the turbulence structure of the flow, in the same way as the sub-grid method is used for the hydrodynamic turbulence. The hydrodynamics part of the SPH model is validated by experiment data of the run-up of solitary wave. The SPH sediment part is validated by experiment data of oscillatory flow above wave-generated ripples. The comparisons show very good agreement.
