Numerical model for nearshore characteristics of Krueng Aceh river estuary

The goal of this research is to study the configuration patterns in the Krueng Aceh estuary vicinity. The research has been done in an unsteady two dimensional integrated wave and current numerical model, and a periodic type of boundary conditions has been applied along cross shore sides. Numerical calculation shows that the breaking wave positions for the area form an almost parallel line to the shore line. Waves come from northwest drive the longshore currents to the east direction.
