Sand Transport by Waves and Currents: Predictions of Research and Engineering Models
Publication: Coastal Engineering 2000
Abstract
This paper concerns work being undertaken as part of the EU MAST3 SEDMOC project (1998–2001). One of the main aims of this project has been to improve our ability to predict sediment transport rates throughout the physical parameter ranges of importance in coastal engineering practice. Here the transport predictions of a local, one-dimensional (vertical), numerical research model, and also Bijker's practical sand transport model, are compared with data from two field sites. The importance of the wave-related component of sediment transport is also assessed.
