Combined Modelling of Coastal Barrier Breaching and Induced Flood Propagation Using XBeach

Breaching of coastal barriers is a three-dimensional process induced by complex interactions between hydrodynamics, sediment transport and soil avalanching processes. Although numerous coastal barriers are breached every year in many coastal countries, causing dramatic inundations of the nearshore a...
