The swash zone largely influences nearshore hydrodynamics and morphodynamics through
dissipating or reflecting wave energy and controlling whether sediment will be stored on the …

Hydrodynamic forcing with respect to sediment transport and morphologic change, paying
particular attention to relevant swash asymmetries, is reviewed. The hydrodynamics are …

Turbulence closure models are evaluated for application to spilling and plunging breakers in
the surf zone using open source computational fluid dynamics software. A new library of …

This paper presents an extension of the XBeach-G numerical model with a sediment
transport and morphology module, which includes the effect of groundwater ventilation and …

We simulated the erosion and accretion of a natural beach using a wave‐resolving eddy‐
diffusive model of water and suspended sediment motion in the bottom boundary layer …

A two‐phase model is implemented to study the effects of wave shape on the transport of
coarse‐grained sediment in the sheet flow regime. The model is based on balance …

Extensive research efforts in the last decade have improved knowledge of swash-zone
processes. This paper reviews and synthesizes from 2004 onward the research advances of …

Direct measurements of bed shear in the swash zone are presented. The data were
obtained using a shear plate in medium and large-scale laboratory bore-driven swash and …

A critical review of conceptual and mathematical models developed in recent decades on
sediment transport in the swash zone is presented. Numerous studies of the hydrodynamics …

A field experiment was conducted on a high energy sandy beach (Truc Vert, France) to
examine swash zone processes and shoreline erosion–accretion in response to changing …
