Excerpt from Analytical Solutions of the One-Line Model of Shoreline Change
The investigation described in this report was authorized as a part of the Civil Works Research and Development Program by the Office, Chief of Engi neers (oce), US Army Corps of Engineers. The work was performed under the Coastal Sediment Transport Processes Work Unit 324 - 1, Shore Protection and Restoration Program, at the Coastal Engineering Research Center (cerc) of the US Army Engineer Waterways Experiment Station (wes). Messrs. John H. Lock hart, Jr., and John G. Housley were the oce Technical Monitors.
The study was conducted from 1 July 1986 through 31 December 1986 by Dr. Nicholas C. Kraus, Research Physical Scientist and Principal Investigator, Coastal Sediment Transport Processes Work Unit, Research Division (cr), cerc, in conjunction with related engineering studies by Messrs. Magnus Larson and Hans Hanson of the University of Lund, Sweden. This report presents the over all results of these efforts. The cerc portion of the study was conducted under general supervision of Dr. James R. Houston, Chief, cerc; Mr. Charles C. Calhoun, Jr., Assistant Chief, cerc; and Dr. Charles L. Vincent, Program Manager, Shore Protection and Restoration Program, cerc; and under direct supervision of Mr. H. Lee Butler, Chief, cr, cerc. Work at the University of Lund was performed under general supervision of Dr. Gunnar Lindh, Head, Department of Water Resources Engineering, Institute of Science and Technol ogy. Mr. Bruce A. Ebersole provided technical review. This report was edited by Ms. Shirley A. J. Hanshaw, Information Technology Laboratory, Information Products Division, wes.

Paperback. Zustand: New. Print on Demand. This book comprehensively explores the mathematical modeling of shoreline change in response to the construction of various coastal structures like groins, jetties, and detached breakwaters. The author uses analytical solutions to the governing equations, providing valuable insights into beach behavior in simplified settings. The primary focus is to demonstrate the essential features of beach response, isolating and clarifying fundamental concepts for better understanding. The book also examines shoreline evolution resulting from sand discharge from rivers and discusses the effects of the linearization approximation commonly used in many of these models. The analytical solutions presented in this book serve as a foundation for understanding the complex dynamics of shoreline change, their limitations, and their applicability for practical engineering design. The author emphasizes the importance of interpreting results obtained from simplified models with care and awareness of the underlying assumptions.
