Has Anyone tried Sediment Transport Modeling using COMSOL?

I am trying to model sediment transport in a closed geometric shape through a porous breakwater. Which physics I should apply? Has anyone tried modeling sediment transport or wave attenuation using COMSOL?

Dear Salman,

The fluid flow part is a multi-phase flow problem, and can be handled through the CFD Module.

On top of the fluid flow, you can model the sedimentation process using scalar transport equations, in this case the Chemical Reaction Engineering Module can be of help. Or you can use the Particle Tracing Module to model the sedimentation.

Best regards,
