Paperback. Condición: New. Print on Demand. This book revolutionizes coastal engineering's approach to predicting longshore sediment transport, a problem of utmost importance for predicting erosion and developing coastal protection projects. The author, a renowned expert in this field, presents a rigorous, step-by-step method for this critical engineering task. The approach is based on the concept of longshore energy flux, a key driver of sediment movement along the coast. The book provides several formulas for calculating this energy flux, and for deriving longshore transport rates from these calculations. These formulas are derived from first principles using simplified wave theory and are supported by a comprehensive review of field and laboratory data. The method developed in this book has been used to design numerous coastal projects worldwide, making it a vital reference for coastal engineers, geologists, and anyone concerned with the dynamics of sandy coastlines. 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.…
