Beach Nourishment as a Management Technique

open access: yesCoastal Engineering 1980, 1980
Beach nourishment is considered an environmentally safe management technique, since an unsuccessful nourishment project would simply result in the redistribution of borrow material by wave action into environments more in keeping with a state of equilibrium.

Barrier Beach Modelling as a Management Tool

open access: yes, 2023
Barrier beaches are one of the most dynamic and vulnerable coastal landforms found between open seas and closed/semi-closed enclosures like bays, marshlands or estuaries. Being a very narrow coastal feature, they are susceptible to frequent storm induced flooding and breaching. Further global sea level phenomena also a pose serious threat to their very

WorMa: An Undulatory Robot With Center of Mass Regulation via Internal Fluid Redistribution for Amphibious Locomotion

open access: yesAdvanced Robotics Research, EarlyView.
WorMa is an amphibious undulatory robot that uses Center of Mass redistribution as the sole terrain adaptation mechanism. This mechanism is based on internal fluid mass redistribution through a pump‐driven latex balloon system that creates three profiles: head‐biased, balanced, and tail‐biased.

Beach and cliff retreat induced by storm groups at Forte Novo,Algarve (Portugal) [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
Littoral cell dynamics may change through time as a reaction to modifications of the coastal system. Along the Vilamoura-Quarteira coastline, the construction of a groin field limited the sediment supply to the already narrow Forte Novo beach, located ...
