Nevertheless, a continual issue in different wall models is the shift of the mean velocity profile from the wall-model/RANS (Reynolds-averaged Navier-Stokes) region to the LES region. This phenomenon, referred to as logarithmic layer mismatch (LLM), occurs in both wall shear stress models and hybrid RANS/LES models. Many efforts have been made to explain and resolve this mismatch, including decreasing the high correlation between the wall shear stress and the velocity at the matching layer, modifying the subgrid-scale (SGS) eddy viscosity, and adding a stochastic forcing. It is widely believed that the inclusion of the resolved Reynolds shear stress (or the convection term) is essential to eliminate the LLM, as it prevents the overestimation of the modeled Reynolds shear stress and promotes the generation of the small-scale flow structures in the near-wall region. In this work, by comparing three different SGS eddy viscosity models, we demonstrate that ensuring the total-shear-stress-conserved (TSSC) constraint is key to resolving the LLM. Under the TSSC framework, the effect of the convection term on LLM can be quantitatively assessed. Furthermore, a modified SGS eddy viscosity modification model that adheres to the TSSC constraint is tested at different Reynolds numbers (<span><math><mi>R</mi><msub><mrow><mi>e</mi></mrow><mrow><mi>τ</mi></mrow></msub><mo>=</mo><mn>1000</mn><mo>,</mo><mn>2000</mn><mo>,</mo><mn>4200</mn></math></span>).

Within the developed framework, the entire problem domain is divided into two computational layers that are allowed to overlap, the fluid layer and the soil layer. Each phase satisfies its own laws of motion within its respective computational layer. The numerical stability of the novel NGPD method is enhanced by several key stabilization techniques, such as artificial terms and efficient particle shifting technique (PST). The boundary conditions of the fluid phase and soil skeleton in the proposed method are introduced in detail. Among them, a novel stress boundary for soils is proposed to avoid the particle penetration phenomenon.

To validate the performance of the proposed method in simulating submarine landslide problems, four benchmark examples, including a classical underwater soil column problem with analytical solution and three experimental submerged landslide examples, are studied by the proposed method.
