Resumo:ABSTRACT: The aim of this thesis is to present a new process-based shape equation that is able to overcome the limitations of current models and estimate the static equilibrium shoreline of complex bathymetry beaches. A methodology for applying the model in real beaches is suggested and it is validated by presenting different case studies (Milagro beach, San Andrés beach, Cala Millor beach...). The results demonstrate that the static equilibium shape equation as well as the methodology simulates accurately the equilibrium planform shape of real beaches. What is more, the static equilibrium beach planform shape equation is combined with the concept of beach memory in order to obtain the instantaneous shoreline. An engineering application of the proposed methodology is also shown.
