Abstract

We address in this paper the problem of particle-based simulation of breaking waves. We present a new set of equations based on oceanographic research which allow us to deal with several types of breaking waves and multiple wave trains with full control over governing parameters. In order to reduce computations in non-significant areas, we also describe a simple and efficient multiresolution scheme, controlled using the properties of our breaking wave model.
