Modeling of Breaching Due to Overtopping Flow and Waves Based on Coupled Flow and Sediment Transport

Breaching of earthen or sandy dams/dunes by overtopping flow and waves is a complicated process with strong, unsteady flow, high sediment transport, and rapid bed changes in which the interactions between flow and morphology should not be ignored. This study presents a depth-averaged two-dimensional...
