To develop and understand the physical processes responsible for shaping the ongoing evolution of the coast and to develop the management strategies to deal the impact of human activities on the coastal zone and as well as for adapting to the hazards associated with the people living on the coast, knowledge of the mechanism, processes and the pattern of sediment movement in the nearshore zone is of utmost importance. Nearshore zone is a very active area, where a series of dynamic processes occur in response to changing wave climates and sediment budgets. Nowadays mathematical modeling is an attractive alternative and becoming a very viable approach to study the sediment movement pattern with the advanced computational facilities and improved understanding on wave mechanics and sediment transport processes. It is very effective, reliable and also comfortable to study the pattern of sediment transportation including yield, distribution and management of sediment with the help of mathematical model. Validity of forecast in sediment transport depends on both mathematical modeling technique and boundary conditions.展开更多
