Abstract

Abstract

Based on the evolution equation for water waves,a mathematical model for wave propagation in large mild-slope areas is derived.The model is solved by the finite difference method with the staggered grid system.The computational results are in good agreement with experimental data and show that better results with relatively coarser grids can also be obtained by the model.The model can be used to simulate water wave propagation in large coastal areas and can be efficiently solved with little programming effort.
