A Navier-Stokes solver is used to examine steep waves as they run up a steep beach (10.54°). The volume of fluid method (VOF) is used to model the free surface. Comparison with experimental results shows reasonable overall agreement in the prediction of the freesurface, velocities and accelerations

In the present paper, the numerical method for the three-dimensional run-up, given in Johnsgard and Pedersen ['A numerical model for three-dimensional run-up', Int. J. Numer. Methods Fluids, 24, 913 -931 (1997)], is extended to include wave breaking. In the fundamental problem of run-up of a uniform
Conventional investigations of waves-seabed interaction problems have been only concerned with the soil response due to two-dimensional linear progressive waves over a uniform seabed. However, the effects of non-linear waves which have been reported in the literature may be significantly different.
