THE EFFECT OF GROYNES ON STABLE BEACHES

[摘要] The paper describes tests carried out in a wave basin to study the effect of groynes on a beach that was stable for a particular wave climate and a given supply of littoral material. The main conclusion was that on the part of the beach between H.W. and L.W. level the groynes produced no build up. The only build-up that occurred took place seaward of the impermeable groynes. Permeable groynes had little effect either inshore or offshore.
