Predicting the morphodynamics of sedimentary landscapes due to fluvial and aeolian flows
requires answering the following questions: Is the flow strong enough to initiate sediment …

This review focuses on recent advances in process-based numerical models of the impact of
extreme storms on sandy coasts. Driven by larger-scale models of meteorology and …

Onshore sediment transport and sandbar migration are important to the morphological
evolution of beaches but are not well understood. Here, a model that accounts for fluid …

Shoreline location and incident wave energy, observed for almost 5 years at Torrey Pines
beach, show seasonal fluctuations characteristic of southern California beaches. The …

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

The past decade has witnessed the substantial growth in research interests and progress on
the subject of coupled hydro-mechanical processes in rocks and soils, driven mainly by the …

A multi-dimensional Eulerian two-phase model for sediment transport, called SedFoam, is
presented. The model was developed under the open-source framework via the CFD …

With the growth of available computational resource, CFD–DEM (computational fluid
dynamics–discrete element method) becomes an increasingly promising and feasible …

A model of sand transport in water is produced by combining a turbulence‐resolving large
eddy simulation (LES) with a discrete element model (DEM) prescribing the motion of …

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