| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
The purposes of this study are to clarify the causes of breaking waves and to disclose the relationship between breaking waves and impact pressure by the numerical simulation. Numerical simulations of wave run-up on the periodic wave and the solitary wave have been conducted to analyze the mechanical energy on water surface. The results show that the kinetic energy of water surface particles increases divergently which can lead to the wave breaking. However, impact pressure is difficult to elucidate only with the wave pressure just after the wave breaking.

| Academic Significance and Societal Importance of the Research Achievements |
本研究の成果である砕波条件の学術的意義は，砕波が波峰以外の位置で起こることを示唆したことである。また，社会的意義としては社会インフラの維持管理にも役立つと考えられる。例えば，砕波は空気中への塩分供給の原因であり，その塩分が構造物に付着すると構造物は劣化し始める。従って，数値シミュレーションなどで砕波点の正確な位置を算出し，現地観測から得られる風況と組み合わせることで，海岸からの飛来塩分量を高精度に予測することができる。
