The Sand Motor is a pilot project of a ‘mega-nourishment’ built in the Dutch coast in 2011. In order to understand which conditions reshape those mega-nourishments the influence of different types of forcing on the longshore sediment transport along the Sand Motor has been assessed in this paper using a process-based model. The use of numerical...

Large (mega-scale) nourishments have been proposed as a promising alternative for traditional beach and shoreface nourishments, especially for locations with large structural erosion and sufficient sediment to dredge. This paper examines the initial bathymetric evolution of the Sand Engine, a mega-nourishment of 17 million m3 protruding almost 1...

Kraus, N.C. (author)
In this chapter we consider beach profile and cross-shore sediment transport processes commonly encountered in coastal engineering applications. Main emphasis is on beach profile change produced by direct wave action, and our assumption will be that longshore transport processes are constant along the profile. Present engineering knowledge of...
