In this monograph, a finite difference algorithm for studying two-dimensional wave breaking in the vertical plane is developed. The essential feature of this algorithm is the combination of the Volume-of-Fluid (VOF) technique for arbitrary free surfaces and the K-epsilon turbulence model. This methodology allows a self-contained study for wave transformation processes in shallow water before, during and after breaking. This capability is illustrated in several calculations. The text should be of benefit to final year graduates, postgraduates and researchers working in the fields of turbulence modelling, wave hydrodynamics, coastal engineering and the oceanography of coastal regions.
