  • Potential of transplanted seagrass meadows on wave attenuation in a fetch-limited environment 

    Sierra Pedrico, Juan Pablo; Gracia Garcia, Vicente; Castell, X; García León, Manuel; Mösso Aranda, César; Lin Ye, Jue (Multidisciplinary Digital Publishing Institute (MDPI), 2023-06)
    Article
    Open Access
    In this paper, the effectiveness of transplanted (either created or restored) seagrass meadows as a coastal protection measure is assessed through a five-step methodology. The analysis is focused on a stretch of the Catalan ...

  • Present and future flooding and erosion along the NW Spanish Mediterranean Coast 

    Sánchez Artús, Xavier; Gracia Garcia, Vicente; Espino Infantes, Manuel; Sierra Pedrico, Juan Pablo; Pinyol Guamis, Jordi; Sánchez-Arcilla Conejo, Agustín (Frontiers Media, 2023-07)
    Article
    Open Access
    Coastal flooding and eros-ion caused by extreme events are the main factors responsible for beach hazards. This effect will be exacerbated by the sea level rise induced by climate change. The present work determines the ...

  • Study of atmospheric forcing influence on harbour water renewal 

    Samper Garcia, Yaiza Julia; Espino Infantes, Manuel; Liste Muñoz, María; Mestres Ridge, Marc; Alsina Torrent, José María; Sánchez-Arcilla Conejo, Agustín (2023-05)
    Article
    Open Access
    In this study, we use observations and numerical simulations to investigate the effect of meteorological parameters such as wind and atmospheric pressure on harbour water exchanges. The modelled information is obtained ...

  • Smoothed Particle Hydrodynamics simulations of reef surf zone processes driven by plunging irregular waves 

    Lowe, Ryan J.; Altomare, Corrado; Buckley, Mark L.; da Silva, R.F.; Hansen, Jeff; Rijnsdorp, Dirk; Domínguez Alonso, José Manuel; Cabrera Crespo, Alejandro (2022-03)
    Article
    Restricted access - publisher's policy
    As waves interact with the slopes of coral reefs and other steep bathymetry profiles, plunging breaking usually occurs where the free surface overturns and violent water motion is triggered. Resolving these surf zone ...

  • Regular wave seakeeping analysis of a planing hull by smoothed particle hydrodynamics: a comprehensive validation 

    Capasso, Salvatore; Tagliafierro, Bonaventura; Mancini, Simone; Martinez Estevez, Ivan; Altomare, Corrado; Domínguez, Jose; Viccione, Giacomo (Multidisciplinary Digital Publishing Institute (MDPI), 2023-04)
    Article
    Open Access
    In this work, the dynamics of a planing hull in regular head waves was investigated using the Smoothed Particle Hydrodynamics (SPH) meshfree method. The simulation of the interaction of such vessels with wave trains features ...

  • DualSPHysics modelling to analyse the response of Tetrapods against solitary wave 

    Mitsui, Jun; Altomare, Corrado; Crespo, Alejandro; Dominguez, Jose; Martinez Estevez, Ivan; Suzuki, Tomohiro; Kubota, Shin-ichi; Gómez Gesteira, Moncho (2023-08)
    Article
    Open Access
    The stability of Tetrapod armour units against solitary waves using Smoothed Particle Hydrodynamics (SPH) method is analysed in this work. To this purpose, the SPH-based DualSPHysics code was coupled with the multiphysics ...

  • Non-hydrostatic modelling of coastal flooding in port environments 

    Suzuki, Tomohiro; Altomare, Corrado; Willems, Marc; Dan, Sebastian (Multidisciplinary Digital Publishing Institute (MDPI), 2023-03)
    Article
    Open Access
    Understanding key flooding processes such as wave overtopping and overflow (i.e., water flows over a structure when the crest level of the structure is lower than the water level in front) is crucial for coastal management ...

  • Near-bed sediment transport processes during onshore bar migration in large-scale experiments: comparison with offshore bar migration 

    Grossmann, Florian; Hurther, David; Van der Zanden, Joep; Sánchez-Arcilla Conejo, Agustín; Alsina Torrent, José María (Wiley, 2023-03)
    Article
    Open Access
    Detailed information on nearshore sediment transport processes during onshore bar migration were obtained from large-scale laboratory experiments with bichromatic wave groups on a relatively steep initial beach slope (1:15). ...

  • Influence of the initial beach profile on the sediment transport processes during post-storm onshore bar migration 

    Grossmann, Florian; Hurther, David; Sánchez-Arcilla Conejo, Agustín; Alsina Torrent, José María (2023-04)
    Article
    Open Access
    Onshore bar migration is a characteristic bar behavior during post-storm beach recovery. The present large-scale experiments, feature bichromatic wave groups over an initially steep (1:15), fully-evolving beach. The same ...

  • Transfer and dissipation of energy during wave group propagation on a gentle beach slope 

    Padilla, Enrique; Alsina Torrent, José María (2017-08)
    Article
    Open Access
    The propagation of bichromatic wave groups over a constant 1:100 beach slope and the influence of the group modulation is presented. The modulation is controlled by varying the group frequency, fg, which is shown to ...
