Distant-Source Swells Cause Coastal Inundation on Fiji’s Coral Coast

open access: yesFrontiers in Marine Science, 2020
Distant-source swells are known to regularly inundate low-lying Pacific Island communities. Here we examine extreme total water level (TWL) and inundation driven by a distant-source swell on Fiji’s Coral Coast using observations and a phase-resolving ...

Modelling storm hydrodynamics on gravel beaches with XBeach-G

open access: yesCoastal Engineering, 2014
AbstractIn this paper we present a process-based numerical model for the prediction of storm hydrodynamics and hydrology on gravel beaches. The model comprises an extension of an existing open-source storm-impact model for sandy coasts (XBeach), through the application of (1) a non-hydrostatic pressure correction term that allows wave-by-wave modelling

Sensitivity Analysis of Event-Specific Calibration Data and Its Application to Modeling of Subaerial Storm Erosion under Complex Bathymetry

open access: yesJournal of Marine Science and Engineering, 2022
Key parameters in a process-based model depicting the morphological changes during storm events should be adjusted to simulate the hydro- and morphodynamics, leading to site-, profile-, and event-specific calibration.

ASSESSING UNCERTAINTY IN THE MODELING OF RUNUP AND SWASH MORPHODYNAMICS USING XBEACH

open access: yesCoastal Engineering Proceedings, 2020
Phase-resolving numerical models are frequently used tools to investigate short and long wave transformation, nonlinear wave interactions, and wave runup. Moreover, nearshore morphodynamics can be explored with the recent advancement of the models and computational resources.

Influence of Beach Erosion during Wave Action in Designed Artificial Sandy Beach Using XBeach Model: Profiles and Shoreline

open access: yesJournal of Marine Science and Engineering, 2023
Beach width is an important factor for tourists’ comfort, and the backshore is a swash zone where sediment moves quickly. Artificial sandy beaches focus on beach width stability and evolution.

Storm overwash of a gravel barrier: Field measurements and XBeach-G modelling [PDF]

open access: yesCoastal Engineering, 2017
Abstract Gravel barriers provide a natural form of coastal protection and flood defence for many sites around the UK and worldwide. Predicting their vulnerability to different storm impact regimes that cause overtopping and overwash is crucial as these processes can lead to hazardous consequences such as inundation of the back of the barrier or ...

Model Numerik Atenuasi Gelombang oleh Vegetasi Menggunakan Program XBeach

open access: yesJurnal Aplikasi Teknik Sipil, 2021
Proses abrasi pantai di wilayah pesisir disebabkan oleh proses alami berupa proseshidro-oseanografi seperti hempasan gelombang laut, fluktuasi muka air laut dan arus sehingga mengakibatkan terjadinya kemunduran garis pantai dan terjadi fenomena sedimentasi. Salah satu upaya dalam menanggulangi abrasi adalah dengan penanaman vegetasi.

Gravel Barrier Beach Morphodynamic Response to Extreme Conditions

open access: yesJournal of Marine Science and Engineering, 2021
Gravel beaches and barriers form a valuable natural protection for many shorelines. The paper presents a numerical modelling study of gravel barrier beach response to storm wave conditions.
