... ABSTRACT Data on beach accidents on the Dadonghai from 2004 to 2021 was collected by conducting a web search. The data collected includes the time of the accident, the number of people involved, their age, gender, place of origin and the activities they were doing at the time of the accident...

... Abstract In this study, a single shock wave approaching a frictional sloping plane beach was investigated. Upon the method of the characteristics, the flow solution behind the shock wave was obtained by numerically solving the nonlinear shallow water equations with the Chezy frictional term...

... due to sand transport from northwest to southeast and consequently the need of shore protections to avoid beach retreat. GENESIS simulations provided rather representative results of shoreline evolution when compared to real evolution of the shoreline. Larger discrepancies were found close...

... costs and helped with greenhouse gas emission (Andrady, 2009). Plastic is playing an increasingly important role as it is predicted that a whole century's worth of growth will be generated in the first three decades of the 21st century (Hammond, 2007). sea state particle model beach plastic...

... ABSTRACT A laboratory experiments were performed to study morphdynamics of composite sand-gravel beach. Three cases of the experiment were tested. The response of the beach was discussed by comparing the profiles for the cases under normal, storm and post-storm waves. Based on the results...

... ABSTRACT Using the process-based XBeach model, beach response during storm surge and post-storm recovery during mild wave conditions are simulated on Pingtan Longfengtou beach in Fujian, China. The XBeach model is set up based on four in-situation measured cross-shore profiles (1st to 4th...

... modifications to the beach, are some of the factors that limit the adaptability of the beach system and amplify the risk of erosion and flooding of the coastal land. Coastal defense interventions have historically been based on the construction of rigid works (seawalls, groins, breakwaters, jetties, etc...

... of the Narrabeen beach with a typical storm-wave event that happened in June 2012. By integrating NearCom and CSHORE models, this study enables a highly computationally-efficient simulation system which joins subaerial and subtidal morphodynamic simulations. This research shows that the morphologic responses...

... ABSTRACT Accurate evaluation of wave run-up on beaches is a critical issue for coastal flooding studies. During extreme events, the maximum wave run-up, caused by very long (frequently non-breaking) waves, may exceed the crest of the coastal protection structures or dunes and inundate...

... ABSTRACT The big wave suddenly invaded to the beach, and three children were carried off to the sea by the wave though they played on the beach. The beach characteristic topography has the cusp topography and steep slope. This study tried to comprehend the reason why this accident occurred...

... ABSTRACT In-site bathymetric measurements are too expensive to be sufficiently available for the investigation on beach changes. We proposed a series of image processing to detect waterlines from 31 satellite images over 12 years. A correction method is used to determine the corresponding...

... ABSTRACT An artificial sandbar, also referred to as a submerged berm/mound or nearshore berm, is defined as the nearshore placement as an underwater berm for the purpose of beach nourishment or stabilization, or a combination of both. A series of physical experiments were performed to study...

... ABSTRACT To determine the mechanism of gravel profile deformation, the change in the spatiotemporal beach profile is investigated by hydraulic experiments. The temporal profiles are obtained by image sampling, and the groundwater flow is analyzed by using dye. By utilizing these results...

... ABSTRACT The research on the effect of coastal facilities for protecting an estuary from channel blockage and a coast from beach erosion by waves demands to understand wave propagation, a nearshore current and sediment transportation. The purpose of this research is to evaluate the effect...

... ABSTRACT A comprehensive study was performed to investigate the behavior of gravel on the upper part of a sandy beach. 2D and 3D experiments were carried out in a wave flume and a wave basin, respectively. In the 2D experiment, three cases were tested: no gravel, small and large volumes...

... studies exist of waves propagating and breaking over sloping beaches that have significantly improved our understanding of wave breaking hydrodynamics in the surf zone. Hansen and Svendsen (1984) performed small-scale experiments using a bi-directional micropropeller, in order to study the generating...
