WAVE RUN UP ON NATURAL BEACHES [PDF]
Coastal Engineering Proceedings, 2011 Wave run up is important for quantifying risks to infrastructure in the coastal zone. The performance of global wave run up models are assessed by applying them to two significant storms along the South African coastline in 2007 and 2008. The models produced mixed results and therefore the development of a new wave run up model was undertaken.

Edge waves along a sloping beach [PDF]
, 2001 We construct a family of explicit rotational solutions to the nonlinear governing equations for water waves, describing edge waves propagating over a plane-sloping beach.

Contravariant Boussinesq equations for the simulation of wave transformation, breaking and run-up [PDF]
, 2015 We propose an integral form of the fully non-linear Boussinesq equations in contravariant formulation, in which Christoffel symbols are avoided, in order to simulate wave transformation phenomena, wave breaking and near shore currents in computational

BEM-numerics and KdV-model analysis for solitary wave split-up [PDF]
, 1997 In this paper we consider travelling surface waves on a layer of water of decreasing depth. A numerical scheme based on the boundary element method is used to present calculations for the run-up of a solitary wave. The numerical results are compared with

Analysis of the pressure at a vertical barrier due to extreme wave run-up over variable bathymetry
Theoretical and Applied Mechanics Letters, 2017 The pressure load at a vertical barrier caused by extreme wave run-up is analysed numerically, using the conformal mapping method to solve the two-dimensional free surface Euler equations in a pseudo-spectral model.

Probabilistic characteristics of narrow-band long-wave run-up onshore [PDF]
Natural Hazards and Earth System Sciences, 2019 The run-up of random long-wave ensemble (swell, storm surge, and tsunami) on the constant-slope beach is studied in the framework of the nonlinear shallow-water theory in the approximation of non-breaking waves.

Wave Run-Up on a Simulated Beach
Coastal Engineering 1976, 1976 A set of experiments concerning wave run-up in the presence of an offshore bar is described. Results pertaining to the direct relationship between incident waves and run-up heights are presented. It is clear that in the majority of cases the offshore bar does reduce run-up heights.

WAVE RUN-UP ON A NATURAL BEACH
Coastal Engineering Proceedings, 1988 The swash oscillation, waves and water particle velocity in the surf zone were measured by using 16 mm memo-motion cameras and electromagnetic current meters. It was inferred that incident waves form two-dimensional standing waves with the anti-node in the swash slope. Separation of the incident waves and reflected waves was attempted with good results

Observations of nonlinear run-up patterns on plane and rhythmic beach morphology [PDF]
, 2010 Application of non-linear forecasting and bispectral analysis to video observations of run-up over cuspate topography shows that these alongshore patterns in the morphology are accompanied by changes to the fundamental behaviour of the run-up timeseries.
