ABSTRACT Lee, W.D.; Cox, D.T., and Hur, D.S., 2017. Numerical model study on the wave and current control by coastal vegetation. In: Lee, J.L.; Griffiths, T.; Lotan, A.; Suh, K.-S., and Lee, J. (eds.), The 2nd International Water Safety Symposium. Journal of Coastal Research, Special Issue No. 79, pp. 219–223. Coconut Creek (Florida), ISSN 0749-0208. In this study, three-dimensional numerical simulations were conducted to investigate the effect of the coastal vegetation on the wave and current controls. The model was modified to apply three-dimensional Navier-Stokes solver based on porous body model for the direct simulation of the wave energy dissipation through the vegetation. The new formula of a vegetation drag coefficient based on the wave-vegetation interaction was proposed through the hydraulic model tests and the formula was implemented to the model. The modified numerical model was tested and the results were compared with the experimental results to verify the numerical model capability. The mod...
