Influence of Macroroughness on Tsunami Loading of Coastal Structures
(American Society of Civil Engineers, 2015)This paper presents experimental laboratory data to show how macroroughness affects tsunami flow as it travels across the inundation zone. The effects of macroroughness have been observed in several tsunamis, most recently ... -
Comparative Study on Breaking Wave Forces on Vertical Walls
(American Society of Civil Engineers, 1993)Systematic comparison between the Minikin and Goda methods for prediction of horizontal breaking‐wave force on vertical wall structures is presented. The normalized wave forces are computed using both methods and presented ... -

Velocity Fields in Near-Bottom and Boundary Layer Flows in Prebreaking Zone of a Solitary Wave Propagating over a 1:10 Slope
(American Society of Civil Engineers, 2015)The velocity characteristics of a solitary wave shoaling in the prebreaking zone and near the breaking point are investigated experimentally. The study focuses on the near-bottom and boundary layer flows on a 1:10 slope, ... -
Beach Profile Model with Size-Selective Sediment Transport. I: Laboratory Experiment and Sensitivity Study
(American Society of Civil Engineers, 2015)The response of physical models of beach profiles to random breaking waves was studied to investigate size-selective sediment transport and cross-shore profile evolution. Three types of beach profiles with different sediment ... -
Overflow Concentration and Sedimentation in Hoppers
(American Society of Civil Engineers, 2014)Sediment spillage from hopper overflow constitutes a source for sediment plumes and can also impact the turbidity of aquatic environments. The overflowing mixture is often different from the mixture pumped into the hopper ... -
Hydrodynamic Behavior and the Effects of Water Pollution from Dalian’s Large-Scale Offshore Airport Island in Jinzhou Bay, China

Numerical Simulation of Nearshore Hydrodynamics and Sediment Transport Downdrift of a Tidal Inlet
(American Society of Civil Engineers, 2015)Nearshore hydrodynamics and sediment transport patterns induced by waves and tide adjacent to a structured tidal inlet with complex bathymetry are investigated to determine the potential causes of downdrift beach erosion. ... -
Beach Profile Model with Size-Selective Sediment Transport. II: Numerical Modeling
(American Society of Civil Engineers, 2015)Beach profile evolution is a dynamic phenomenon that often leads to threatening consequences such as severe beach erosion and shoreline retreat. A new comprehensive morphodynamic model is introduced in this study that ... -

Cross-Shore Redistribution of Nourished Sand near a Breaker Bar
(American Society of Civil Engineers, 2014)This paper focuses on the optimal location for dumping nourished sand on a barred coastline. This is done by investigating the short-term behavior of the cross-shore redistribution of nourished sediment on a breaker-bar ... -
Vertical Cylinder Density and Toppling Effects on Dune Erosion and Overwash
(American Society of Civil Engineers, 2015)Interactions among waves, sand dunes, and vertical cylinders are investigated in a laboratory experiment. A cross-shore numerical model is expanded to include the drag force acting on cylinders. The hydrodynamic variables ... -
