Boussinesq modelling of wavegroup propagation over a shallow shoal and the release of second order and higher harmonics

A numerical model of wavegroup propagation over varying bathymetry is used to study the evolution of a wavegroup generated from a Pierson-Moskowitz spectrum as it passes over a shallow shoal. The numerical model is shock capturing and can simulate both wave breaking and subsequent smooth re-formatio...
