Titre : Beach nourishment : theory and practice Type de document : texte imprimé Auteurs : Dean, Robert G., Auteur Editeur : World Scientific Année de publication : 2002 Importance : XX-399 p. Format : 24 cm. ISBN/ISSN/EAN : 9789810215487 Langues : Anglais (eng) Index. décimale : 551 Géologie, météorologie, hydrologie générale Résumé : This book is written for engineers, students of coastal processes and laypersons interested in beach nourishment, which consists of the placement of large quantities of good quality sediment on the beach to advance the shoreline seaward. The improvement of project performance through proper design and the predictability of performance are emphasized. The overall longevity of a project is addressed as are local erosional areas. The roles which wave height, project length and sediment quality play in project performance are addressed quantitatively. The results are illustrated through reference to a number of monitored nourishment projects. Biological and economic aspects of beach nourishment are addressed.

Titre : Coastal processes : with engineering applications Type de document : texte imprimé Auteurs : Dean, Robert G., Auteur Editeur : Cambridge university press Année de publication : 2002 Importance : XI-475 p. Format : 26 cm ISBN/ISSN/EAN : 978-0-521-60275-4 Langues : Anglais (eng) Index. décimale : 627 Génie hydraulique Résumé : The world's coastlines, dividing land from sea, are geological environments unique in their composition and the physical processes affecting them. Humans have been building structures throughout history at these dynamically active intersections of land and the oceans. Although coastlines were initially used for naval and commercial purposes, more recently recreation and tourism have increased activity in the coastal zones dramatically. Shoreline development is now causing a significant conflict with natural coastal processes.
This text on coastal engineering will help the reader understand these coastal processes and develop strategies to cope effectively with shoreline erosion. The book is organized into four parts: (1) an overview of coastal engineering using case studies to illustrate problems; (2) a consideration of the hydrodynamics of the coastal zone reviewing storm surges, water waves, and low-frequency motions within the near-shore and surf zone; (3) a discussion of coastal responses, including equilibrium beach profiles and sediment transport; and (4) a presentation of applications such as erosion mitigation, beach nourishment, coastal armoring, tidal inlets, and shoreline management.
Students, practicing engineers, and researchers in coastal engineering and coastal oceanography will find this book an invaluable resource for understanding the mechanisms of erosion and designing shoreline structures.Coastal processes : with engineering applications [texte imprimé] / Dean, Robert G., Auteur . - Cambridge university press, 2002 . - XI-475 p. ; 26 cm.
