Abstract
In recent decades, beach erosions have become severe at sandy beach in the world. The coarser sand nourishment has been noticed in Japan because of the stabilization of the beach coast. However the performance is not clear. Therefore in this study, laboratory experiments were conducted for the beach nourishment using the coarser sand. Through of this experiment, the effect of the coarser sand nourishment was investigated.References
