Sinopsis

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.
