Hydralab+ Deliverable D8.3 Protocols for scaling morphodynamics in time
This deliverable reviews the current knowledge and know-how regarding the scaling of time-dependent morphodynamic processes in physical laboratory studies, to address the climate change related evolution of different kinds of aquatic environments ranging from fluvial to coastal systems. Based on this review, protocols are derived to aid with the design

Wave patterns generated by an axisymmetric obstacle in a two-layer flow [PDF]
Gravity waves generated by a moving obstacle in a two-layer stratified fluid are investigated. The experimental configuration is three-dimensional with an axisymmetric obstacle which is towed in one of the two layers.

Effect and propagation of water level fluctuations in a sloping sandy beach -- Unsaturated porous media II: numerical simulation test of single harmonic wave (long run) [PDF]
In coastal processes, the strong water movements due to short periodic waves (such as sea swell) can induce irregular water level fluctuations in the swash zone and within the sandy beach.

Hydrodynamics and morphodynamics in the swash zone: hydralab III large-scale experiments [PDF]
The modelling of swash zone hydrodynamics and sediment transport and the resulting morphodynamics has been an area of very active research over the last decade. However, many details are still to be understood, whose knowledge will be greatly advanced by the collection of high quality data under controlled large-scale laboratory conditions.

Large scale experiments on beach evolution induced by bichromatic wave groups with varying group period [PDF]
New large scale experimental data have been presented showing the wave group influence on beach morphodynamics at the surf and swash zones. Bichromatic wave conditions were generated varying the modulation bandwidth but keeping the wave energetic content

The measurement of wave and / or ice loads on coastal and maritime structures can play an important role in their final design. The number and range of man-made structures that are subject to these loads is increasing – from offshore oil and gas facilities, through ships and, renewable energy devices, to breakwaters, quay walls, bridges and tunnels ...

Comparative analysis of suspended sand concentration recorded with different techniques in a rippled bed regime [PDF]
Sediment entrainment processes due to the oscillatory flow above rippled and plane sea beds are fundamentally different. Whereas above plane beds the sheet flow or bed load regime dominates and the momentum transfer is primarily caused by turbulent ...
