Descrizione dell’articolo da parte del venditore

Print on Demand. This book explores the fascinating and complex world of shoreline evolution, a topic that has long challenged coastal engineers and scientists. The author delves into the history of mathematical models used to predict how coastlines change over time, starting with the pioneering work of Pelnard-Considere in the 1950s. He examines the limitations of early models and traces the development of more sophisticated approaches, including the two-line theory of Bakker, which attempts to account for the movement of sand both along and perpendicular to the shoreline. The book also delves into the intricate impact of wave diffraction on shoreline evolution, exploring how waves bend around obstacles like groins and headlands, shaping the coastline in unique ways. The author discusses the concept of "hooked beaches," which are often formed by the combined effects of refraction and diffraction around headlands, and examines various empirical and theoretical approaches to understanding their formation. The insights presented in this book provide a crucial foundation for understanding the forces that shape our coastlines. By examining the development and evolution of mathematical modeling, the author highlights the ongoing quest to develop reliable and practical tools for predicting future shoreline changes. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format. In rare cases, an imperfection in the original, such as a blemish or missing page, may be replicated in the book.
