What is it about?
The paper provides some applications of the depth-semi-averaged model defined in Antuono et al. [“A depth semi-averaged model for coastal dynamics,” Phys. Fluids 29, 056603 (2017)] to three-dimensional problems of wave propagation . In particular, a wide variety of phenomena typical of the coastal region, as for example nonlinear interaction between waves and the bottom bathymetry (diffraction/refraction phenomena), dispersion effects, and beach inundation are described.

Why is it important?
The adopted model belongs to the class of non-hydrostatic schemes and is conceived to overcome some of the limits of the Boussinesq-type models. In particular, it is capable to deal with wave dynamics from shallow to deep water, describing a wide variety of phenomena typical of wave propagation in the coastal region.
