A one‐dimensional model solving the Reynolds‐averaged Navier‐Stokes and advection‐
diffusion equations in conjunction with ak− ε model for turbulence closure is used to …

Recent large‐scale wave flume experiments on sheet‐flow sediment transport beneath
Stokes waves show more onshore‐directed sediment transport than earlier sheet‐flow …

A 1DV-RANS diffusion model is used to study sand transport processes in oscillatory flat-
bed/sheet flow conditions. The central aim is the verification of the model with laboratory …

Experiments and field observations have revealed that when silt and very fine sand are
subject to oscillatory wave motion, a high shear flow layer and a high concentration layer …

Sea grasses have the capability to damp wave, increase the uptake of nutrients from the
water column, provide a habitat for valuable ecosystems and result in sedimentation and …

The evolution and utilization of estuarine and coastal regions are greatly restricted by
sediment problems. This thesis aims to better understand fine sediment transport under …

In the near-shore zone, energetic sea waves generate sheet-flow sand transport. In present
day coastal models, wave-induced sheet-flow sand transport rates are usually predicted with …

There is an increasing desire to understand and successfully model nearshore processes,
especially in the nearshore zone where many different hydrodynamic and sediment …
