HERNANDEZ VALDES, Kenia e CORDOVA LOPEZ, Luis F.. Mathematical simulation of the interaction wave-coastal protection structures. riha [online]. 2015, vol.36, n.3, pp. 74-87. ISSN 1680-0338.
The significant increase of the population in coastal areas togetherwith the increment and development of the investments associated to sun and beach tourism, make that every day becomes moreimportant torecognize the behavior of the interaction between wave and coastal defense structures, together with the necessity to predict in a quick and correct way the morphodynamicprocessesocurringin sandbeaches under extreme situations. The present work evaluates the capacity of the mathematicalmodelXbeachto correctly simulatethe wave-coastal protection structures interaction, mainly its capacityto reproduce the phenomena associatedwith the hydrodynamic and morphology changes in the presence of groin sand breakwaters.
Palavras-chave : groins; coastal protection structures; mathematical modeling; breakwaters.
