Nearshore Vertical Pore Pressure Gradients and Onshore Sediment Transport under Tropical Storm Forcing
Publisher: ASCE
Abstract: Colocated sediment pore pressures at depths of approximately 0.02 and 0.22 m below the sand surface and near-bed water velocities were measured for approximately 2 weeks in approximately 1 m mean water depth on an ocean ...
Resonances in an Evolving Hole in the Swash Zone
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Water oscillations observed in a 10-m-diameter, 2-m-deep hole excavated on the foreshore just above the low-tide line on an ocean beach were consistent with theory. When swashes first filled the initially circular hole on ...
Particle Image Velocimetry Measurements within a Laboratory-Generated Swash Zone
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: A particle image velocimetry (PIV) technique is used to make vertically resolved two-dimensional measurements in swash zone flows, which are notoriously recalcitrant to quantitative measurement. The PIV implementation ...
Modeling Storm Surge in a Small Tidal Two-Inlet System
Publisher: ASCE
Abstract: Model simulations using a depth-averaged ocean circulation model (ADCIRC) two-way coupled with a wave model (STWAVE) through the Coastal Storm Modeling System Coupling Framework (CSTORM-MS) are compared with observations ...
