Mine Burial Induced by Local Scour and Sandwaves

Abstract

Our long term goal is to help advance the U.S. Navy s capabilities for Mine Burial Prediction (MBP) by conducting large-scale laboratory observations that will both improve our knowledge of the physical processes involved in mine burial and provide a vital bridge between field experiments and numerical modeling of mine burial processes in shallow waters.
