Active Sediment Volume given Seawall Trap Ratio Solution

STEP 0: Pre-Calculation Summary

Formula Used

Active Sediment Volume = Wall Trap Volume/Seawall Trap Ratio
Vs = V_WT/WTR
This formula uses 3 Variables

Variables Used

Active Sediment Volume - (Measured in Cubic Meter) - Active Sediment Volume refers to the volume of sediment that is actively being transported, deposited, or eroded in a particular coastal area or system.
Wall Trap Volume - (Measured in Cubic Meter) - Wall Trap Volume potentially refer to the volume of sediment that gets trapped behind a seawall.
Seawall Trap Ratio - Seawall Trap Ratio is the interaction of seawalls with coastal processes, which is highly dependent upon their position within the active profile.

STEP 1: Convert Input(s) to Base Unit

Wall Trap Volume: 44.9 Cubic Centimeter --> 4.49E-05 Cubic Meter (Check conversion here)
Seawall Trap Ratio: 5 --> No Conversion Required

STEP 2: Evaluate Formula

Substituting Input Values in Formula

Vs = V_WT/WTR --> 4.49E-05/5

Evaluating ... ...

Vs = 8.98E-06

STEP 3: Convert Result to Output's Unit

8.98E-06 Cubic Meter -->8.98 Cubic Centimeter (Check conversion here)

FINAL ANSWER

8.98 Cubic Centimeter <-- Active Sediment Volume

(Calculation completed in 00.004 seconds)

Depth of Closure given Volume of Sand per unit Length of Shoreline

Go Depth of Closure = Parameter for Fill Sands*(Volume per unit Length of Shoreline/((3/5)*(Parameter for Native Sands-Parameter for Fill Sands)))^(2/5)

Volume of Sand per unit Length of Shoreline placed before there is any Dry Beach after Equilibrium

Go Volume per unit Length of Shoreline = (3/5)*(Depth of Closure/Parameter for Fill Sands)^(5/2)*(Parameter for Native Sands-Parameter for Fill Sands)

Volume per unit Length of Shoreline required to produce Beach Width

Go Volume per unit Length of Shoreline = Beach Width*(Design Berm Elevation+Depth of Closure)

Design Berm Elevation given Volume per unit Length of Shoreline

Go Design Berm Elevation = ((Volume per unit Length of Shoreline/Beach Width)-Depth of Closure)

Depth of Closure given Volume per unit Length of Shoreline

Go Depth of Closure = ((Volume per unit Length of Shoreline/Beach Width)-Design Berm Elevation)

Active Sediment Volume given Seawall Trap Ratio

Go Active Sediment Volume = Wall Trap Volume/Seawall Trap Ratio

Wall Trap Volume given Seawall Trap Ratio

Go Wall Trap Volume = Seawall Trap Ratio*Active Sediment Volume

Seawall Trap Ratio

Go Seawall Trap Ratio = Wall Trap Volume/Active Sediment Volume

Active Sediment Volume given Seawall Trap Ratio Formula

Active Sediment Volume = Wall Trap Volume/Seawall Trap Ratio
Vs = V_WT/WTR

What is Active Volume in the Cross-Shore Profile?

Active volume in the cross-shore profile influences Successive cross-shore surveys of the beach profile to closure depth reveal spatial variations in vertical elevation at each location. In the absence of lateral transport, the eroded sections balance the accreted areas, i.e., sediment volume is conserved. The active sediment volume is defined as one-half of the total volume change between two successive surveys.

What is the Depth of Closure?

The depth of closure for a given or characteristic time interval is the most landward depth seaward of which there is no significant change in bottom elevation and no significant net sediment exchange between the nearshore and the offshore.

How to Calculate Active Sediment Volume given Seawall Trap Ratio?
