A numerical model was developed based on the Cubic-Interpolated Pseudo-particle (CIP) Combined Unified Procedure (CIP-CUP or C-CUP) method equipped with a Large Eddy Simulation (LES) model and a re-initialization method. The model was validated and applied to the tidal bore flow with a weak breaking front. In the tidal bore flow, the model equipped with a LES turbulence model reproduced accurately the large deformation of the free surface during the bore formation by rapid closure of a downstream gate. The free-surface profile and surge front celerity data were in good agreement with the experimental data of [Koch and Chanson 2009, J. Hyd. Res. IAHR]. At a fixed sampling location, the numerical results showed the existence of some short-lived flow reversal next to the bed immediately after the bore front passage. This flow feature was documented by [Koch and Chanson 2009] and [Chanson 2009, Eur. J. Mech. B. Fluids].
