Beach morphodynamic evolution
Mopla application allows the numerical simulation of wave propagations from indefinite depths towards the coast line. With this data, the induced current in the break zone can be obtained; therefore the morphodynamic evolution of a beach can be simulated. Mopla application includes the following models:
- Oluca: Mild slope parabolic model for wave propagation (both monochromatic and spectral
wave). - Copla: Model for beach currents induced by the spectral wave breaking.
- Eros: Erosion model-sedimentation and bathymetric evolution of the beaches (due to spectral
waves).
