SWAN is a third-generation wave model, developed at Delft University of Technology, that computes random, short-crested wind-generated waves in coastal regions and inland waters.

SWASH is a general-purpose numerical tool for simulating unsteady, non-hydrostatic, free-surface, rotational flow and transport phenomena in coastal waters as driven by waves, tides, buoyancy and wind forces. It provides a general basis for describing wave transformations from deep water to a beach, port or harbour, complex changes to rapidly varied flows, and density driven flows in coastal seas, estuaries, lakes and rivers.

1.The numerical model was built based on two phase imcompressible flow model in cylindrical coordinates by using the projection method to compute the Navier-Stokes equations and VOF method to track the free surface. 2.To track the free surface with VOF method in cylindrical coordinates, CICSAM method was used. 3. This model can be used to simulate multidirectional waves and oblique waves with wave source method implemented inside the computational domain as a circle.
