Tuan, T.Q. (author), Verhagen, H.J. (author), Visser, P.J. (author), Stive, M. (author)For management of coastal breaching hazards it is critical to be able to assess the potential of coastal barrier breaching as a result of wave actions during storm surges (wave overwash). This phenomenon is known as the breach initiation phase; the mechanisms behind this are not very well understood. In the present study, laboratory experiments...conference paper 2006

Tuan, T.Q. (author)In overwash beaches, response of a barrier profile as a whole to storm wave attacks can be distinguished into seaward and landward parts that are associated with two respective across-shore driving processes i.e. surge erosion, and overwash. Modeling of overwash relies heavily on the specification of wave overtopping from the seaside (see...report 2005
