A Numerical Model to Simulate Sediment Transport in the Vicinity of Coastal Structures (Classic Reprint) - Couverture souple
Synopsis
Forecast shoreline change with a practical, field-tested numerical tool. This book presents a numerical model that predicts sediment transport and resulting bathymetry near coastal structures, helping engineers compare offshore and shoreward effects of coastal works.
This edition explains how the model handles longshore and onshore-offshore transport, wave conditions, and the impact of structures like groins or beach nourishment projects. It emphasizes how numerical modeling can complement laboratory and field studies to evaluate shore protection options.
- How the model simulates sediment movement across the surf zone and through shore-normal processes.
- Ways to specify wave climate, boundary conditions, and sediment properties for realistic results.
- Applications to real-world cases, including structures and nourishment scenarios.
- Guidance on using the tool to explore shoreline response to various coastal modifications.
Ideal for readers involved in coastal engineering, shoreline restoration, or research seeking a practical framework for predicting how coastal structures influence sediment dynamics.

Évaluation du vendeur 4 sur 5 étoiles
Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book provides coastal engineers and researchers with a numerical model that predicts sediment transport and the resulting bathymetry near coastal structures. The work was carried out under the US Army Coastal Engineering Research Center's Numerical Modeling of Shoreline Response to Coastal Structures work unit. The study objectives include documenting state-of-the-art models, developing and documenting an improved model that includes the capability to represent n-contours, and applying the model to several relevant coastal engineering problems. The model includes longshore and onshore-offshore sediment transport and an improved distribution of longshore sediment transport across the surf zone based on laboratory results. The wave climate is specified on the model boundaries and does not need to extend to deep water. Efficient algorithms are employed for representing wave refraction and diffraction. The equation of sediment continuity and transport are solved by a completely implicit algorithm which allows for a large time-step. Specified sediment transport values or specified contour positions can be accommodated at the model boundaries. The model is suitable for investigating the shoreline response to a variety of modifications such as one or more groins, terminal structures, structures with variable permeability, and beach nourishment with or without terminal structures. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format. In rare cases, an imperfection in the original, such as a blemish or missing page, may be replicated in the book. print-on-demand item. N° de réf. du vendeur 9781528519649_0
