Abstract:

Windblown sand transport presents a critical challenge to civil structures and infrastructure, particularly in arid and semi- arid environments. This study introduces a probabilistic framework to quantify windblown sand action and assess mitigation measures, integrating statistical and engineering principles. The research systematically reviews existing models, highlighting limitations in deterministic approaches and the necessity for reliability-based methodologies. The study applies the proposed framework to railway infrastructure in the Arabian Peninsula, demonstrating its effectiveness in

Abstract:

Across the coastal dunes, wind velocity and consequently sand transport is strongly controlled by the interaction between regional wind flow, vegetation cover and surface topography (topographic steering, Schwarz et al., 2020). Recently, knowledge has been improved on how winds erode, transport and deposit sand across coastal dunes, including the specific effects of vegetation and moisture as exemple (e.g Bauer et al., 2012; Hesp et al., 2015; Davidson et al., 2022). However, most of the existing studies are based on measurements collected along a single profile, thus limiting the understandin

Abstract:

A model for predicting 3-D beach changes in an extensive area including beach and backshore areas was developed, taking the effects due to both waves and windblown sand into account. In the calculation of beach changes, the BG model (a model for predicting beach changes based on Bagnold's concept) was employed, and a cellular automaton method was used to calculate the backshore changes due to the effect of windblown sand. To validate the model applicability, a reproduction calculation was carried out for the beach formed at the corner of Futtsu new port. The calculation results were in good ag

Abstract:

Windblown sand action affects civil structures and infrastructures in sandy environments, such as deserts and coasts. The wind interacts with human built structures of any kind leading to harmful effects, endangering their serviceability and users’ safety. To counter it, a number of sand mitigation measures (SMM) have been proposed, primarily through the trial-and-error empirical approach. As such, innovative approaches to properly quantify windblown sand action and to design SMM are needed in the current state-of-art and practice. In this study, the authors propose a novel hybrid approa

Abstract:

Salients were formed in the lee of two artificial reefs (submerged breakwaters) constructed on Kimigahama Beach in Chiba Prefecture, Japan, owing to the wave-sheltering effect of the reefs, and then, a significant amount of fine sand was transported inland from the salients by wind action. In this study, not only shoreline changes after the installation of the two artificial reefs but also beach changes caused by windblown sand were predicted using a model, in which the BG model (a model for predicting three-dimensional beach changes due to waves based on Bagnold’s concept) is combined with a

Abstract:

Our next major question is, how can we characterize the sediment as a habitat for biota? Marine sediments range from coarse gravels in areas subjected to much wave and current action, to muds typical of low-energy estuarine areas and to fine silts and clays in deep-sea sediments. The settling velocity of those particles and the ability of any particle to be re-suspended, moved, and redeposited depends on the prevailing hydrographic regime (e.g. see Open University 2002). The latter will in turn influence the transport of a species´ dispersal stages, especially larvae which will then be allowed
