Abstract: We introduce several improvements on key numerical techniques,especially for free surface identification and solid boundary handling method.They make K2_SPH simulating breaking waves successfully.It includes running-up,over-turning and breaking processes.Numerical test of violent tank sloshing shows that K2_SPH method is more accurate and reliable than traditional smoothed particle hydrodynamics(SPH) method for wave profile and pressure distribution.

Key words: smoothed particle hydrodynamics, K2_SPH, meshless method, breaking wave simulation
