ABSTRACT Shin, C.H.; Yoon, S.B., and Oh, S.C., 2018. A comparison of numerical models with experimental data for stem waves along a vertical wall due to monochromatic waves. In: Shim, J.-S.; Chun, I., and Lim, H.S. (eds.), Proceedings from the International Coastal Symposium (ICS) 2018 (Busan, Republic of Korea).

Recently, vertical-type structures are frequently constructed in coastal area to protect ports and operation areas. When the waves propagate at oblique angles to the vertical-type structures, stem waves are generated along a structure due to the nonlinear interaction of incident and reflected waves. Thus, for the design of vertical structures the stem waves should be accurately evaluated using numerical models. In this study the performance of three nonlinear wave models based on different types of governing equations, REF/DIF 1, COULWAVE, and SWASH, was compared by using the measured data f...
