Advances in numerical modelling of swash zone dynamics (2016)
Journal Article
Briganti, R., Torres-Freyermuth, A., Baldock, T. E., Brocchini, M., Dodd, N., Hsu, T., …Postacchini, M. (2016). Advances in numerical modelling of swash zone dynamics. Coastal Engineering, 115, 26-41. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.coastaleng.2016.05.001

We present a comprehensive and critical review of work on the numerical modelling of swash zone processes between 2005 and 2015. A wide range of numerical models has been employed for the study of this region and, hence, only phase-resolving approach... Read More about Advances in numerical modelling of swash zone dynamics.

Intra-swash hydrodynamics and sediment flux for dambreak swash on coarse-grained beaches (2016)
Journal Article
O'Donoghue, T., Kikkert, G. A., Pokrajac, D., Dodd, N., & Briganti, R. (2016). Intra-swash hydrodynamics and sediment flux for dambreak swash on coarse-grained beaches. Coastal Engineering, 112, https://doi.org/10.1016/j.coastaleng.2016.03.004

The paper reports on dambreak-type swash experiments in which intra-swash hydrodynamics and sediment flux are measured for swash on a coarse sand beach and a gravel beach. Flow velocity and depth are measured using PIV and LIF respectively; the intra... Read More about Intra-swash hydrodynamics and sediment flux for dambreak swash on coarse-grained beaches.
