Wave Induced Mine Burial and Sediment Transport in Coastal Environment: Wave and Sediment Transport Modeling Studies
The long-term goal of this work is to develop numerical simulation techniques for predicting waveinduced sediment transport and bed evolution in the coastal zone (order 10 meter depth outside the surf zone), at horizontal scales of tens of meters or less, and the scouring/burial around objects/obstacles (mine-like), partially buried in the bottom. This research was initially motivated by the Na...
متن کاملWave-induced sediment transport and sandbar migration.
Onshore sediment transport and sandbar migration are important to the morphological evolution of beaches but are not well understood. Here, a model that accounts for fluid accelerations in waves predicts the onshore sandbar migration observed on an ocean beach. In both the observations and the model, the location of the maximum acceleration-induced transport moves shoreward with the sandbar, re...
متن کاملThe effect of bottom sediment transport on wave set-up
In this paper we augment the wave-averaged mean field equations commonly used to describe wave set-up and wave-induced mean currents in the near-shore zone, with an empirical sediment flux law depending only on the wave-induced mean current and mean total depth. This model allows the bottom to evolve slowly in time, and is used to examine how sediment transport affects wave set-up in the surf z...
متن کاملModeling of Wave-induced Sediment Transport around Obstacles1
We report on further developments of a hybrid numerical model to simulate wave-induced sediment transport. A 2D numerical wavetank (NWT) based on fully nonlinear potential flow (FNPF) equations is used to simulate fully nonlinear wave generation and propagation. A 3D Navier-Stokes model with large eddy simulation (LES) is coupled to the NWT to simulate complex turbulent flows near the ocean bot...
متن کاملShredding of Environmental Signals by Sediment Transport
Landscapes respond to climate, tectonic motions and sea level, but this response is mediated by sediment transport. Understanding transmission of environmental signals is crucial for predicting landscape response to climate change, and interpreting paleo-climate and tectonics from stratigraphy. Here we propose that sediment transport can act as a nonlinear filter that completely destroys (“shre...
