An integrated framework for coastal flood Early Warning and morphological evolution analysis [Un framework integrato per l’allerta precoce delle inondazioni costiere e l’analisi dell’evoluzione morfologica]
… Siracusa, Italia), accoppiando i modelli SWAN e XBeach con un modulo di machine learning basato su reti neurali artificiali (Artificial Neural Networks, ANN). Un insieme di simulazioni idrodinamiche viene utilizzato per addestrare l’ANN, che consente la previsione quasi istantanea delle superfici …

Investigating the evolution and formation of coastlines and the response to sea-level rise
… hydrodynamics of a simplified reef flat, using XBeach, a two-dimensional model of infragravity wave propagation. The reef flat self-organizes to a specific width and water depth depending on the offshore wave climate and characteristics of the available sediment. Formation of a sub-aerial …

Morphological Change of a Developed Barrier Island due to Hurricane Forcing
… (2012) is evaluated using the numerical model, XBeach. Three main objectives of this work are to evaluate the wave-force reducing capabilities of a buried seawall, the effects of bay surge on morphological change and the effectiveness of adaptation strategies to rising sea levels. According to …

Predictive modelling and coastal storm responsea study of urban and natural coastal systems
… A widely used morphohydrodynamic model, XBeach, was used to simulate the impact of a storm on the Arborea beach. Two scenarios were tested: i) one where the beach morphology remained static, analysing the runup extension, and ii) another where the capability to simulate the development of …

Sediment size effects on self-organisation behaviour of rip channels
… that is adapted from the open source program XBeach. To quantitatively describe the impacts of sediment grain size, a number of indicators that represent the dynamical and geometrical characteristics of rip channels have been used. Specifically, the indicators that related to the dynamical …

Multi-scale modeling of the hydrodynamics, sediment transport, and morphodynamics in the nearshore
… soft foundation. Using the regional-scale XBeach-Surfbeat model, hydrodynamics and morphodynamics during sandbar migration events at Duck, NC, USA were simulated under high-energy and low-energy incident waves. It was found that the model calculations of intense offshore-directed flow …

Gravel barrier dynamics, coastal erosion and flooding risk
… a series of cross-shore profiles along the BPBS (XBeach-Gravel). Robust calibration and validation using data collected from the 5 December 2013 storm surge is undertaken, followed by application to future sea level rise scenarios. Results and subsequent discussion are divided among Chapters 5, 6, …
