Modelos de transporte de sedimentos por oleaje y su aplicaci´on a diferentes escalas de tiempo

The scope of this work is to establish the most important parameters of 3 numerical models that represents the transport of se-diments on the shore, being this, the most important natural process. Taking into account the time dependent classification of the solutions, 3 models are presented and characterized: short, medium, and long term. In a study case, the limits of appli-cation are defined, and also the tendencies of the system, and disadvantages of each model. Results are generated within the limits of application of the models, and the obtained results have good quality. If the initial conditions and the information of the coastal zone are reliable, the represen-tability will be correct.
