OVERVIEW OF MATHEMATICAL MODELS TO SIMULATE COASTAL PROCESSES
Coastal engineering is drawing attention for continuous research activities all over the world to make best use of coastal zone. India has a long coastline of about 7,500 km catering to several ports and harbours. As water transport is the cheapest means of transport for offshore as well as for inland transport of material, the ports are continuously expanding their activities. Major problems being addressed in the coastal engineering relates to morphological changes due to development and expansions of ports and harbours, reclamation schemes, construction of long breakwaters, dredging of navigational channels, seawall constructions, etc. In addition to these aspects natural hazards like receding coastline due to severe erosion, wave penetration into tidal inlets and estuaries, seawater intrusion in coastal aquifers and low land submergence during storms and tsunamis. In order to mitigate such problems it is essential to have thorough knowledge about the coastal hydrodynamics. Computer simulation models or numerical models have become useful tools in understanding and predicting the behavior of coastline. Present paper discuss on the various models that are generally used to simulate the coastal processes. A case describing the application of the model is also presented.
