Abstract

In this paper, we developed a two-way coupled moving solid model to study the rock-slide generated tsunamis. We called this method the implicit velocity correction method (IVCM). The numerical model is developed based on the FVM (finite volume method) to solve the LES (Large-Eddy Simulation) model. The free-surface is described by the VOF (Volume of Fluid) method with the PLIC (Piecewise Linear Interface Calculation) scheme. The simulation is executed on a fixed mesh. The velocity is specified as the cell center velocity of the fluid cells. A benchmark problem of the floating box is presented in this paper and used to validate the numerical model.
