Abstract:

In order to facilitate engineering design and coastal flooding protection, the potential storm surge induced by a typhoon is studied. Using an unstructured mesh, a coupled model which combines the advanced circulation(ADCIRC)hydrodynamic model and simulating waves nearshore(SWAN)model is applied to analyze the storm surge and waves on the coast of Jiangsu Province. The verifications of wind velocity, tidal levels and wave height show that this coupling model performs well to reflect the characteristics of the water levels and waves in the studied region. Results show that the effect of radiation stress on storm surge is significant, especially in shallow areas such as the coast of Jiangsu Province and the Yangtze estuary. By running the coupled model, the simulated potential flooding results can be employed in coastal engineering applications in the Jiangsu coastal area, such as storm surge warnings and extreme water level predictions.
