This reference for engineers, and graduate students covers sediment
transport and morphodynamics modelling in nearshore environments.
It presents the fundamentals required for understanding the physics
and for setting up numerical models. This book covers hydrodynamics
of estuarine and coastal environments, properties of seafloor and
estuarine composition, and hydroenvironmental interactions;
emphasising the inter-relations of small- and large-scale
processes, and short- and large-evolution timescales. The focus is,
principally, on the application of shallow-water theory, but some
surface wave models, and coupling of shallow-water models with
surface waves is also discussed to some extent. The guidance on
running regional models and the case studies presented are directed
to managed realignment, coastal protection, climate change impacts,
and offshore renewables. Key features: Gives a balanced review of
this rich interdisciplinary area Bridges practical engineering and
research Offers both large- and small-scale application Suits
graduate students and researchers as well as consulting engineers
