1. 11. Beach Nourishment at Faxe Ladeplads in Zealand, Denmark

   University essay from Lunds universitet/Avdelningen för Teknisk vattenresurslära

   Author : Anna Adell; [2020]
   Keywords : Beach nourishment; erosion; coastal protection; coastal morphology; sediment dynamics; Technology and Engineering;

   Abstract : The recent beach nourishment performed at Faxe Ladeplads in Zealand, Denmark was established with the objective to reduce wave overtopping onto the adjacent road and also aimed to restore a beach for recreation. During the time that the nourishment has been in place, the appearance of the beach has changed significantly compared to when it was initially restored. READ MORE

3. 12. Modelling of Water Exchange in Flommen Lagoon System in Skanör-Falsterbo, Sweden

   University essay from Lunds universitet/Avdelningen för Teknisk vattenresurslära

   Author : Kenny Lay; Kristian Ångbäck; [2020]
   Keywords : water exchange; sedimentation; flommen lagoon system; iph-eco; modelling; Technology and Engineering;

   Abstract : The Flommen Lagoon system is located in Skanör-Falsterbo, Sweden. It hosts a diverse and sensitive ecosystem. There have been concerns about the water quality in this lagoon due to impaired water exchange. READ MORE

4. 13. A Simulation of Landslide-Generated Waves Using a Fully Implicit ISPH

   University essay from Lunds universitet/Avdelningen för Teknisk vattenresurslära

   Author : Kosei Nishida; [2020]
   Keywords : SPH; Landslide-generated waves; non-newtonian fluid; multiphase flow; Technology and Engineering;

   Abstract : Smoothed Particle Hydrodynamics (SPH) is used to study the mechanisms of landslide-generated waves. As the landslide dynamics and the evaluation of impact forces acting on water are most important, landslide is modelled as a highly viscous fluid. Incompressible SPH (ISPH) is used for fluid simulation. READ MORE

5. 14. Study on future storm surge around Suo-nada Sea

   University essay from Lunds universitet/Avdelningen för Teknisk vattenresurslära

   Author : Ayano Sonoda; [2019]
   Keywords : storm surge; Suo-nada Sea; numerical simulation; FVCOM; Technology and Engineering;

   Abstract : Japan lies on an area frequently hit by typhoons while city functions are clustered along the flat coastal areas, hence Japan has experienced lots of storm surge disasters up to the present. Coastal areas along the Suo-nada Sea also have the vulnerability against storm surge and in the past Typhoon 18 in 1999, Typhoon 16 and 18 in 2004 made remarkable damages in the areas. READ MORE

6. 15. Modelling Water Exchange in the Flommen Lagoon, South Sweden

   University essay from Lunds universitet/Avdelningen för Teknisk vattenresurslära

   Author : Shuwei Wang; [2019]
   Keywords : Water exchange; Coastal lagoon; The Flommen Lagoon; The Falsterbo Peninsula; Longshore sediment transport; Numerical modelling; Inlet morphology; Technology and Engineering;

   Abstract : The Flommen Lagoon in southern Sweden is surrounded by several natural reserves and is an important bird migration site on the edge of the continent. The protection of this area including water quality in the lagoon and flooding problems in the adjacent area has always been a concern. READ MORE
