Abstrakt: An advanced numerical model is presented for the simulation of wave-induced free-surface flow, utilizing an efficient hybrid parallel implementation. The model is based on the solution of the Navier-Stokes equations using large-eddy simulation of large-scale coastal free-surface flows. The three-dimensional immersed boundary method was used for the enforcement of the no-slip boundary condition on the bed surface. The water-air interface was tracked using the level-set method. The numerical model was effectively validated against laboratory measurements involving wave propagation over a flatbed with an elliptical shoal, whose presence induces combined wave refraction and diffraction phenomena. The parallel implementation of the model enabled the efficient simulation of depth-resolved, wave-induced, three-dimensional, free-surface flow; the model parallel efficiency and strong scaling are quantitatively demonstrated.
