Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of tidal flat landform evolution simulation technology, in particular to a multi-scale wave-current-sediment coupled shore evolution prediction model method. Background Art
[0002] Tidal flats serve as a buffer zone between humans and the ocean. Tidal flat profile development is controlled by factors such as tides, waves, sediment, and organisms. The complex feedback mechanisms between these multiple dynamic factors complicate the prediction of tidal flat profile morphology. Under the positive feedback influence of hydrodynamics and morphology, tidal flats are in a long-term dynamic equilibrium between erosion and siltation. Numerical models play a crucial role in analyzing and predicting the evolution of tidal flat morphology.
[0003] However, such models require complex boundary conditions and input parameters, generally in two-dimensional or three-dimensional form. The simulation and prediction of long-term landform evolution usually requires a long calculation time. In addition, the near-bottom sediment flux terms in the existing sediment module control equations are calculated using the shear stress method. The suspension and sedimentation states of sediment are usually controlled by the critical scour shear stress and critical erosion shear stress, while the critical erosion shear stress and erosion rate generally need to be determined in the laboratory. The confirmation of parameters is difficult, especially for cohesive sediment. Many studies have used arbitrary and unreasonable values. Summary of the Invention

[0139] In this embodiment, the measured section of the tidal flat near the Wanggang River estuary in Jiangsu Province is taken as an example, the cross-section terrain is simplified, and the initial slope of the model is taken as 0.2%. Figure 2 The figure shows a schematic diagram of the measured topography and the initial topography of the model. The elevation range is -6 to 4 m. The tidal ranges of M2 and S2 in this area are 3.4 m and 1.2 m respectively. The simplified tidal range is 4 m. Two working conditions, wave and no wave, are considered. The wave period is set to 3 s, and the effective wave height is set to 0 m and 0.3 m respectively. The sediment part provides parameters such as boundary suspended sediment concentration C, diffusion coefficient ε, porosity p, sedimentation velocity ω, and density.
[0140] The initial slope of the model is 0.2%, and the calculation grid spacing is 1m, so the bed elevation zb Stored in a 5000*1 grid, the water surface function is obtained based on the tidal range of 4m. Water depth h = η - z b , which constitutes the basic condition for solving the tidal power module.

Here, the space is discretized, and the first-order backward difference format is used at low tide, and the first-order forward difference format is used at high tide. The implicit backward Euler method is used for time discretization.
[0149] Finally, the suspended sediment concentration distribution obtained above is substituted into the bottom bed update equation, and the forward Euler method is used to iteratively solve the tidal flat profile topography at different simulation stages, such as Figure 6 The figure shows a comparison diagram of the results of the model method of the embodiment of the present invention and the traditional tidal sediment model. Compared with the Delft3D model, the annual terrain curves are almost identical, and the error is significantly reduced over time, which has a higher simulation accuracy.
[0150] This embodiment uses the sediment carrying capacity formula as the near-bottom sediment flux. The sediment carrying capacity refers to the sediment content of the water body under certain water flow and wave conditions. When the sediment content in the water body is different from the sediment carrying capacity of the water flow, the sediment returns to consistency (suspended or silted) at a certain rate, so that the sediment content in the water body is adapted to the hydrodynamic conditions.
[0151] This embodiment provides a multi-scale wave-current-sediment coupled shore evolution prediction model method. Based on given offshore tidal flat water area topography data, a coordinate system is established. Then, based on observation stations, tidal, wave, and sediment data in the area are obtained. The data are organized and used as boundary conditions to import into the wave-current-sediment coupled shore evolution prediction model. A tidal flat prediction model is constructed based on the integration of tidal dynamics, wave motion, and sediment dynamics modules, and the required model parameters of each module are set. The finite difference method is used to solve the fluid continuity equation, wave energy conservation equation, one-dimensional vertical average suspended sediment convection and diffusion equation, and bottom bed update equation in the model to obtain tidal flat profile topography at different simulation stages and analyze the shore evolution law of the tidal flat profile under the action of waves and currents.
[0152] This embodiment has a sufficient theoretical basis and can more accurately simulate the evolution process of tidal flat profile morphology under the combined action of waves and currents.
