Simulation of aeolian sediment transport with inter-particle moisture using Discrete Particle Modelling

Research output: Contribution to conferenceAbstractAcademic

Abstract

Moisture plays a critical role in the dynamics of aeolian sediment transport over coastal sandy beaches. It was found from field observations that the transport over wet beach surfaces is fundamentally different from that over dry surfaces (Swann, 2021). Despite many empirical findings about the moisture effect on the threshold and transport flux, the small-scale mechanics that inter-particle moisture affects the development of transport from initiation towards equilibrium remains poorly understood (Cornelis & Gabriels, 2003).
