Mathematical model to determine alongshore transport rate to Caribbean beaches.
This article evaluates CERC (1984) and Kamphuis (2000) models for the Hicacos Peninsula, Matanzas, Cuba, which relate sedimentation transport rates with energy flow. The Bijker (1971) model is also evaluated, relating alongshore current velocity with sediment volumes available to be transported. The...

| description | This article evaluates CERC (1984) and Kamphuis (2000) models for the Hicacos Peninsula, Matanzas, Cuba, which relate sedimentation transport rates with energy flow. The Bijker (1971) model is also evaluated, relating alongshore current velocity with sediment volumes available to be transported. These are compared with volumetric/bathymetric measurements conducted in the area. The results are then compared with those obtained using UNIBEST software. |
