Wave dynamics behind a shore-normal breakwater

Towards better understanding and modelling of coastal impacts at sandy coasts

Shore-normal breakwaters are constructed in coastal zones both for beach protection (erosion reduction) and port development (wave sheltering). These breakwaters have an effect on the waves, the (wave-driven) currents and hence, the sediment transport along the coast. The waves a ...
