Methods for Predicting Sand Outflow
Here are examples of methods for predicting sand outflow depth. An empirical formula of Ioroi and Yamamoto [1] could reproduce the outflow rate with acceptable accuracy. There are a few…
Scouring Depth Evaluation Methods
Scouring depths in front of coastal structures induced by waves can be evaluated by many methods. For example, an empirical equation of Fowler [1] can evaluate the maximum scour depth…
Sand Outflow from Coastal Structure
when the scouring depth reaches the lowest edge of a structure (usually, the sheet pile), waves can infiltrate the body of the structure and flow out the backfilling materials; this…
