Assessment of Dynamic Pressures at Vertical and Perforated Breakwaters through Diffusive SPH Schemes

This paper deals with the development of a 2D weakly compressible SPH model to simulate wave pressures acting on vertical and slotted coastal structures. Attention is devoted to investigate the diffusive term in the continuity equation in order to smooth out the high-frequency numerical noise in the...
