【 摘 要 】

In the design of mobile bed coastal models it is inherently assumed that prototype beach processes may be modelled using lightweight sediment. At the Queen's University Coastal Engineering Research Laboratory, a long range project is currently in progress to determine scaling laws and scale effect for mobile bed coastal models. A large portion of this program is directly concerned with beach profiles and in this paper preliminary work is reported, in which a comparison is made between two dimensional laboratory beach profiles obtained from controlled "prototype", undistorted model and some distorted model tests.
