Abstract

This book focuses on various unsteady gravity flows with a free surface in nature and engineering, i.e., water waves, and introduces the theories, methodologies, and case studies on numerical simulation. Coastal areas as junctions of land and seas are the regions with most complex changes of various dynamic factors, especially the shallow coastal regions with mild slopes. The sediment transport in the coastal area is very complex due to the evolution of waves and currents and wave breaking. This chapter describes numerical simulation of coastal morphological evolution.
