Application of Artificial Neural Networks to Predict Beach Nourishment Volume Requirements
The volume of material required for the construction of new and expansion of existing beach sites is an important parameter for coastal management. This information may play a crucial role when deciding which beach sites to develop.

Post-Nourishment Changes of an Artificial Gravel Pocket Beach Using UAV Imagery
Monitoring and analysis of changes in the volume and area of nourished beaches is crucial to inform any beach renourishment programme. The aim of this study is to utilise UAV surveys and SfM photogrammetry to assess the beach nourishment performance of ...

Artificial Intelligence Application on Sediment Transport
When erosion occurs, sand beaches cannot maintain sufficient sand width, foreshore slopes become steeper due to frequent erosion effects, and beaches are trapped in a vicious cycle of vulnerability due to incident waves.

An experimental study on the evolution of beach profiles under different beach nourishment methods
Due to the influence of storm surges, hard coastal protection structures may exacerbate beach erosion, hence beach nourishment methods are considered in coastal protection and restoration efforts. An experiment is conducted in a wave flume to compare the

Beach Nourishment as an Adaptation to Future Sandy Beach Loss Owing to Sea-Level Rise in Thailand
A recent study suggested that significant beach loss may take place on the coasts of Thailand by the end of the 21st century as per projections of sea-level rise by the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC).
