- This paper develops a novel coupling strategy for integrating compressible and incompressible multiphase flow solvers within a numerical wave tank model. By combining the two solvers together through a domain decomposition approach, the important fluid compressibility effects in predicting violent breaking wave impact on offshore and coastal structures can be taken into account while reducing the overall computational costs. The output from this work including the developed numerical codes contributed to the successful application of two EPSRC projects (EP/M022383 and EP/N008839) and has been further developed into a national numerical wave tank facility within the CCP-WSI project (www.ccp-wsi.ac.uk ).
