Numerical Modelling of Bed Evolution Behind a Detached Breakwater
The sedimentological impact of waves on a sandy beach with a detached breakwater is simulated using a compound system of models. The results are satisfying since a salient could be generated behind the structure. They are in agreement with bed evolutions surveyed in experimental facilities and in nature. A quantitative analysis of the results performed in the framework of the working group 'Coastal Area Modelling' of the project MAST G8M shows that the volume of accretion computed here is in good agreement with the volumes obtained by other models and empirical formula.
