Popis: An integrated technical research explores a complete synergy of physical scale modelling, numerical simulations and field records in order to validate the potential use of sand suppletion as a coastal defence for the Flemish East coast. Detailed analysis of the rich field data forms an optimum reflective mirror to put the respective design and calculation tools in both a comparative and evaluating framework. Combining all available instruments in an interactive modelling approach leads to an optimum design and a more economic application of beach nourishment techniques in this area.
