Equilibrium modeling of the Beach Profile on a Macrotidal Embayed Beach
, 2017 Predicting the pluriannual variability of shoreline position in response to hydrodynamic forcing (waves and tides) is of primordial interest scientists, engineers, and beach managers. 11-year time series of monthly profile beach survey and hourly incident wave conditions are analyzed on a macrotidal sandy embayed beach in Brittany (France).

Gravel beaches nourishment: Modelling the equilibrium beach profile. [PDF]
Science of The Total Environment, 2018 The erosion of the world's coasts and the shortage of sand to mitigate beach erosion are leading to the increasingly common use of gravel for coastal protection and beach nourishment. Therefore, in order to determine the amount of gravel required for such actions, it is important to know perfectly the equilibrium profile of gravel beaches.

Beach development, sediment budget and coastal erosion at Holderness. [PDF]
, 1985 Complex relationships exist among offshore conditions, beach sediment transport and morphology, and till cliff erosion. Modelled and measured sediment transport rates established for the Holderness coast are similar to those on comparable coasts ...

Spatial and temporal scales of the morphodynamic evolution within the Studland complex. [PDF]
This research has analysed the large sandy beach at Studland Peninsula over a range of spatial and temporal scales, recording a range of geomorphic features and the processes by which they evolve.

Journal of Marine Science and Engineering, 2023 Beach slope is a critical parameter to, e.g., beach safety, wave reflection at the coast and longshore transport rate. However, it is usually considered as a time-invariant and profile-average parameter.

Wave Dissipation and Sediment Transport Patterns during Shoreface Nourishment towards Equilibrium
Journal of Marine Science and Engineering, 2021 Implementing shoreface nourishment is an effective method to protect sandy beaches. A better understanding of the equilibrium mechanism of shoreface nourishments is necessary for coastal engineering designs and constructions. Two experiments on the beach
