Modeling bio-geomorphological influences for offshore sandwaves
The coastal environment shows a wide range of bed patterns, for which sandwaves and
sandbanks are among the most common. Less known in this context is the high benthic …

Numerical simulation of sand waves in a turbulent open channel flow
A Khosronejad, F Sotiropoulos - Journal of Fluid Mechanics, 2014 - cambridge.org
We develop a coupled hydro-morphodynamic numerical model for carrying out large-eddy
simulation of stratified, turbulent flow over a mobile sand bed. The method is based on the …

Spatially varying environmental properties controlling observed sand wave morphology
JM Damen, TAGP van Dijk… - Journal of Geophysical …, 2018 - Wiley Online Library
Sand wave morphology and dynamics on continental shelves vary substantially, and we
hypothesize that these spatial variations depend on local bed properties and hydrodynamic …

Modelling the effect of suspended load transport and tidal asymmetry on the equilibrium tidal sand wave height
Tidal sand waves are rhythmic bed forms found in shallow sandy coastal seas, reaching
heights up to ten meters and migration rates of several meters per year. Because of their …

Modeling tidal sand wave formation in a numerical shallow water model: The role of turbulence formulation
Tidal sand waves are prominent dynamic bottom features in shallow sandy seas. Up to now,
the processes controlling the formation of these bedforms have only been studied in stability …
