Investigation of Momentum Correction Factor in the Swash Flow (2022)
Journal Article
Zhu, F., Dodd, N., Larson, M., & Zhang, J. (2022). Investigation of Momentum Correction Factor in the Swash Flow. Journal of Waterway, Port, Coastal, and Ocean Engineering, 148(6), https://doi.org/10.1061/%28asce%29ww.1943-5460.0000722

Swash flows are commonly modeled using the nonlinear shallow water equations (NSWEs). In the derivation of the NSWEs, directly from depth-averaging the Navier-Stokes equations, a so-called momentum correction factor, β, emerges. In this study we pres...

Wave overtopping at near-vertical seawalls: Influence of foreshore evolution during storms (2022)
Journal Article
Briganti, R., Musumeci, R. E., van der Meerc, J., Romanoe, A., Stancanelli, L. M., Kudella, M., …Schimmels, S. (2022). Wave overtopping at near-vertical seawalls: Influence of foreshore evolution during storms. Ocean Engineering, 261, Article 112024. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.oceaneng.2022.112024

This work presents the results of an investigation on how wave overtopping at a near-vertical seawall at the back of a sandy foreshore is influenced by sequences of erosive storms. The experiments were carried out in the Large Wave Flume (GWK) at Lei... Read More about Wave overtopping at near-vertical seawalls: Influence of foreshore evolution during storms.

Green Nourishment: An Innovative Nature-Based Solution for Coastal Erosion (2022)
Journal Article
Chen, W. L., Muller, P., Grabowski, R. C., & Dodd, N. (2022). Green Nourishment: An Innovative Nature-Based Solution for Coastal Erosion. Frontiers in Marine Science, 8, Article 814589. https://doi.org/10.3389/fmars.2021.814589

Coastal erosion poses an urgent threat to life and property in low-lying regions. Sand nourishment is increasingly used as a nature-based solution but requires significant natural resources and replenishment over time. In this study, a novel form of...
