The obstruction effect of littoral drift by an artificial headland was investigated using the contour-line-change model, taking the Kujukuri coast as an example. Numerical simulation was carried out assuming the seabed slopes of 1/50 and 1/100, while changing the length and the shape of the headland. The rate of the obstruction effect of littoral drift by a headland was quantitatively evaluated. It is given by the function of time after the construction. Only the construction of the headland is difficult to form a statically stable beach, and sand bypassing or sand recycling is required to prevent further beach erosion.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
