  • A subcritical instability of wave-driven alongshore currents
    Dodd, Nick; Iranzo, Vicente; Caballeria, Miquel (American Geophyisical Union, 2004)
    The development of shear instabilities of a wave-driven alongshore current is investigated. In particular, we use weakly nonlinear theory to investigate the possibility that such instabilities, which have been observed ...
  • Frontshear and backshear instabilities of the mean longshore current
    Baquerizo, Asunción; Caballeria, Miquel; Losada, Miguel A.; Falqués, Albert (American Geophysical Union, 2001)
    An analytical model based on Bowen and Holman [1989] is used to prove the existence of instabilities due to the presence of a second extremum of the background vorticity at the front side of the longshore current. The ...
  • Generation and nonlinear evolution of shore-oblique/transverse sand bars
    Garnier, R.; Calvete, D.; Falqués, Albert; Caballeria, Miquel (Cambridge University Press, 2006)
    The coupling between topography, waves and currents in the surf zone may selforganize to produce the formation of shore-transverse or shore-oblique sand bars on an otherwise alongshore uniform beach. In the absence of ...
  • Modeling shoreline sand waves on the coasts of Namibia and Angola
    Ribas Prats, Francesca; Falqués, Albert; Van den Berg, Niels; Caballeria, Miquel (Elsevier, 2013)
    The southwestern (SW) coast of Africa (Namibia and Angola) features long sandy beaches and a wave climate dominated by energetic swells from the Southsouthwest (SSW), therefore approaching the coast with a very high obliquity. ...
  • On themechanism of wavelength selection of self-organized shoreline sand waves
    Van den Berg, Niels; Falqués, Albert; Ribas Prats, Francesca; Caballeria, Miquel (Wiley, 2014)
    Sandy shorelines exposed to very oblique wave incidence can be unstable and develop self-organized shoreline sand waves. Different types of models predict the formation of these sand waves with an initially dominant ...
  • Self-organization mechanisms for the formation on nearshore crescentic and transverse sand bars
    Caballeria, Miquel; Coco, G.; Falqués, Albert; Huntley, D.A. (Cambridge University Press, 2002)
    The formation and development of transverse and crescentic sand bars in the coastal marine environment has been investigated by means of a nonlinear numerical model based on the shallow-water equations and on a simpli ...
