Swash-zone morphodynamics

Continental Shelf Research, 2006
Hydrodynamic forcing with respect to sediment transport and morphologic change, paying particular attention to relevant swash asymmetries, is reviewed. The hydrodynamics are categorized into their individual effects: high- and low-frequency motions, bores and turbulence, in/exfiltration, shear stresses and friction coefficients.

Velocity Profiles at the Swash Zone

Coastal Structures 2003, 2004
Velocity profiles at the swash zone have been sampled with an ADVP during a large scale experiment on a fixed bed beach. The unique set of data permits to observe the time variation of the velocity distributions and to contribute to the debate concerning the variation of the friction factor, f , in a swash cycle. The analyses of the velocity data with

Swash zone sediment transport modes

Marine Geology, 1994
Abstract The result of field experiments, designed to investigate the relative proportions of bedload and suspended load, are described. The ratio of bedload to suspended sediment load in the swash zone is examined in both swash and backwash on four beaches by measuring the amounts collected in a sediment trap.

Swash zone response under various wave regimes

Journal of Hydraulic Research, 2011
The modelling of swash zone (SZ) sediment transport and the resulting morphodynamics have been areas of 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 the controlled large-scale laboratory conditions.

Turbulence experiments in the swash zone

Coastal Engineering, 2001
Abstract Turbulence and water surface elevation measurements were carried out in the swash zone which was induced by plunging and collapsing breakers in a wave flume. Three different period regular waves were generated on a 1/10 smooth impermeable concrete beach and the water surface elevations were collected by a number of wave gauges and a run-up ...

Video measurement of swash zone hydrodynamics

Geomorphology, 1999
A new technique for recording two-dimensional uprush and backwash depth profiles using standard analogue camcorder technology is introduced. This technique has the potential to provide low cost, high frequency, high resolution measurements of individual swash events.

NUMERICAL MODELLING OF SWASH ZONE HYDRODYNAMICS

Coastal Engineering 2002, 2003
Abstract : The swash zone is the area of the nearshore that is intermittently covered and uncovered by wave run-up. Since swash hydrodynamics control the evolution of beach morphology, understanding these motions is of paramount importance. Typical studies of swash zone hydrodynamics involve the deployment of several instruments to measure the swash ...

Integral swash-zone models

Continental Shelf Research, 2006
A broad illustration is given of integral swash zone models as a flexible and upgradable approach for formulating shoreline boundary conditions for wave-averaged circulation models. Integral models represent a framework in which various types of flow parameterizations can be fitted to give ever-improving descriptions of swash zone motions. Examples are

Numerical investigation of swash zone hydrodynamics

Science China Technological Sciences, 2013
This paper presents a novel numerical model using a fully three-dimensional (3D), incompressible, two-phase flow Navier-Stokes (NS) solver, which are discretized by the finite volume method. A high-resolution STACS-VOF method is used to capture the interface between the air and water phases.
