Riemann solution for a class of morphodynamic shallow water dam-break problems (2017)
Journal Article
Zhu, F., & Dodd, N. (2018). Riemann solution for a class of morphodynamic shallow water dam-break problems. Journal of Fluid Mechanics, 835, https://doi.org/10.1017/jfm.2017.794

This paper investigates a family of dam-break problems over an erodible bed. The hydrodynamics are described by the shallow water equations, and the bed change by a sediment conservation equation, coupled to the hydrodynamics by a sediment transport...

An idealised study for the long term evolution of crescentic bars (2017)
Journal Article
Chen, W., Dodd, N., Tiessen, M., & Calvete, D. (in press). An idealised study for the long term evolution of crescentic bars. Continental Shelf Research, https://doi.org/10.1016/j.csr.2017.11.006

An idealised study that identifies the mechanisms in the long term evolution of crescentic bar systems in nature is presented. Growth to finite amplitude (i.e., equilibration, sometimes referred to as saturation) and higher harmonic interaction are h...

Coastal morphodynamical modelling in nonlinear shallow water framework using a coordinate transformation method (2017)
Journal Article
Huynh, V. L., Dodd, N., & Zhu, F. (2017). Coastal morphodynamical modelling in nonlinear shallow water framework using a coordinate transformation method. Advances in Water Resources, 107, https://doi.org/10.1016/j.advwatres.2017.07.003

A 1D numerical model of Nonlinear Shallow Water Equations (NSWEs) coupled to an advection equation for suspended sediment and a bed evolution equation is developed. The moving boundary at the shoreline is treated by a coordinate transformation method...
