- Additional information
- Current beach profile models have drawbacks and uncertainties in predicting beach deformation. Here we present a model that can simulate 2-3 days of storm conditions in a few minutes, using only a personal computer. The initial model presented here is qualitatively accurate and, with further refinement, will lead to more cost-effective and faster results than current beach profile models. The study thus presents ground-breaking work of direct relevance to coastal engineers and numerical modellers. This project was funded by the Great Britain Sasakawa Foundation, Japan Society for the Promotion of Science and Waseda University.
