Coastal Dynamics Around a Submerged Barrier
Submerged barriers are one of the most promising kind of shoreline protecting structures. The advantages offered vs. the conventional emerged structures are somehow off set because they are much more difficult to project. This decreases their use and limits their application potential. The paper presents some results, obtained by using numerical models on the hydro-morphodynamic behaviour of such structural concept. They illustrate the observed interactions between the freeboard of the structure, its distance to the coast and the resulting wave field, induced circulation and sediment transport patterns.
