This book was released on 1991 with total page 72 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The report gives two chapters of a workbook about the shoreline response numerical model GENESIS. These chapters focus on two important aspects of the simulation system: (1) error and warning messages, why they are issued and remedial measures and (2) interpretation and presentation of simulation results. The modeling system GENESIS, developed over the last decade, is now available to the Corps of Engineer Districts. The main objective of the workbook is to efficiently transfer this technology from researchers at the U.S. Army Waterways Experiment Station's (WES) Coastal Engineering Research Center (CERC) to field office personnel. For this reason, complete documentation of the numerical model is required. Numerical model, Beach Change, Beach Fills, Simulation, Coastal Structures, Groins, Shoreline Evolution, Sand Transport, Breakwaters.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This report documents a numerical modeling system named GENESIS which is designed to simulate long-term shoreline change at coastal engineering projects as produced by spatial and temporal changes in longshore sand transport. Typical longshore extents and time periods of modeled projects can be in the ranges of 1 to 100 km and 1 to 100 months, respectively, and almost arbitrary numbers and combinations of groins, detached breakwaters, seawalls, jetties, and beach fills can be represented. GENESIS contains what is believed to be a reasonable balance between present capabilities to efficiently and accurately calculate coastal sediment processes from engineering data and the limit in both the data and knowledge of sediment transport and beach change. The modeling is operated through a structured and user-friendly interface so that the operator need not become familiar with detailed aspects of the computer code. This report serves as a technical reference to Version 2 of GENESIS and is also designed to be an operator's manual by providing instructions for using the interface. The method for applying the model is described from the perspective of the needs of both engineers and planners who deal with evaluate shore-protection projects. A fully documented case study involving application of the modeling system and exercise of many of its features is provided.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Global warming, melting polar caps, rising sea levels and intensifying wave-current action, factors responsible for the alarming phenomena of coastal erosion on the one hand and adverse environmental impacts and the high cost of 'hard' protection schemes, on the other, have created interest in the detailed examination of the potential and range of applicability of the emerging and promising category of 'soft' shore protection methods. 'Soft' methods such as beach nourishment, submerged breakwaters, artificial reefs, gravity drain systems, floating breakwaters, plantations of hydrophylous shrubs or even dry branches, applied mostly during the past 20 years, are recognised as possessing technical, environmental and financial advantageous properties deserving more attention and further developmental experimentation than has occured hitherto. On the other hand, 'hard' shore protection methods such as seawalls, groins and detached breakwaters, artefacts borrowed from port design and construction technology, no matter how well designed and well implemented they may be, can hardly avoid intensification of the consequential erosive, often devastating, effects on the down-drift shores. Moreover, they often do not constitute environmentally and financially attractive solutions for long stretches of eroding shoreline. Engineers and scientists practising design and implementation of shore defence schemes have been aware for many years of the public demand for improved shore protection technologies. They are encouraging efforts that promise enrichment of those environmentally sound and financially attractive methods that can be safely applied.
