Numerical Modeling of Coastal Processes

Palu Tsunami - Moschee

Objectives

The course Numerical Modelling of Coastal Processes imparts essential approaches for numerical modelling of the physical processes at the coast including swell, tides and transport processes. Various open source tools are applied so that students are able to use a wide repertoire of software while knowing potentials and challenges during numerical simulations.

Topics

  • Basics of numerical modelling
  • Calibration and validation of numerical models
  • Coupling of hydrodynamic models
  • Intruduction and application of open source tools
