Wave-induced watertable fluctuations, sediment transport and beach profile change: Modeling and comparison with large-scale laboratory experiments

David Andrew Barry, Alessandro Brovelli, Roham Bakhtyar

Coastal groundwater systems can have a considerable impact on sediment transport and foreshore evolution in the surf and swash zones. Process-based modeling of wave motion on a permeable beach taking into account wave-aquifer interactions was conducted to ...

Numerical Simulation of Two-Phase Flow for Nearshore Hydrodynamics under Wave-Current Interactions

David Andrew Barry, Roham Bakhtyar, Amir Mehdi Razmi

Surf and swash zone hydrodynamics are complex, being composed of a highly energetic water-air mixture under periodically unsteady motion. Wave-current interactions have a major effect on the results of hydrodynamic simulations, and consequently on predicti ...

Cross-shore sediment transport estimation using fuzzy inference system in the swash zone

Roham Bakhtyar

The interactions between fluid and sediment in the swash zone dominate the erosion or accretion of the beach, and they act as boundary conditions for nearshore hydrodynamic and morphodynamic models. Thus, the evaluation of sediment transport is of particul ...

Numerical simulation of two-phase flow for sediment transport in the inner-surf and swash zones

David Andrew Barry, Roham Bakhtyar

A two-dimensional two-phase flow framework for fluid- sediment flow simulation in the surf and swash zones was described. Propagation, breaking, uprush and backwash of waves on sloping beaches were studied numerically with an emphasis on fluid hydrodynamic ...

Effects of wave forcing on a subterranean estuary

David Andrew Barry, Roham Bakhtyar, Clare Robinson

Wave and tide are important forcing factors that typically co-exist in coastal environments. A numerical study was conducted to investigate individual and combined effects of these forces on flow and mixing processes in a near-shore subterranean estuary. A ...

Discussion of “Application of a Nonstandard Explicit Integration to Solve Green and Ampt Infiltration Equation” by Damodhara R. Mailapalli, Wesley W. Wallender, Rajendra Singh, and Narendra S. Raghuwanshi

David Andrew Barry, Roham Bakhtyar

Mailapalli et al. (2009) presented an explicit numerical scheme for calculation of solutions to the 1D Green and Ampt (1911) infiltration equation. They compared their numerical solution to a numerical solution obtained using the Newton-Raphson method (e.g ...

Air-water two-phase flow modeling of turbulent surf and swash zone wave motions

David Andrew Barry, Roham Bakhtyar, Amir Mehdi Razmi

Wave breaking and wave runup/rundown have a major influence on nearshore hydrodynamics, morphodynamics and beach evolution. In the case of wave breaking, there is significant mixing of air and water at the wave crest, along with relatively high kinetic ene ...

Numerical simulation of surf-swash zone motions and turbulent flow

David Andrew Barry, Roham Bakhtyar

A two-dimensional numerical model was presented for the simulation of wave breaking, runup and turbulence in the surf and swash zones. The main components of the model are the Reynolds-Averaged Navier-Stokes equations describing the average motion of a tur ...

Optimization of cascade stilling basins using GA and PSO approaches

David Andrew Barry, Roham Bakhtyar

In high head dams, the kinetic energy at the spillway toe is very high and the tail-water depth available for energy dissipation is relatively small. Cascade stilling basins are energy dissipation systems for high head dams, the design of which is based on ...
