Final shoreline position in the vicinity of a shore- parallel detached breakwater (6 =, a .= rad , «o2 = 0) Shoreline Change at a Seawall 79. The function of a seawall is to prevent the shoreline from retreat- ing along a specific coastal reach. If the shoreline remains well seaward of the seawall, there will be no influence of the seawall on the shoreline evolu- tion. If the shoreline retreats to the seawall, the location of the seawall determines the minimum allowable shoreline position. If erosion takes place beside a seawall (flanking), various changes in the shoreline position might occur depending on the characteristics of the seawall and the incident waves. If flanking of the seawall is not possible (see Figure 38), the solution for the plan shape of an eroded shoreline will be the same as for erosion downdrift of a groin (Equation 64, with opposite sign). In this case, the seawall is functioning as a semi-infinite structure. 60.
