Abstract

This paper presents a quasi-three dimensional numerical model of wave-induced currents due to wave breaking so as to make it applicable to the coastal region with coastal structures and barred beachs. First, applicability of the present model to undertow velocity and nearshore current around the detached breakwater was investigated by comparing with the results of laboratory tests. Secondly, nearshore current on the barred beach was computed. Finally, nearshore current around the harbor in the field was computed and then the results of computation were compared with those of field observations.
