In this work, we conduct controlled experiments in a wave flume to represent different wave-wave interactions occurring in the swash zone. Using solitary waves as the forcing condition, we combined different wave amplitudes with separation times between the wave events. Experimental results show that interactions developing in the swash zone present three main stages: A jet slamming, an induced splash, and a region where the flow becomes fully 3D turbulent. We identified that the location where the interactions occur and the type of interaction depends on two main factors, the relationship between the wave amplitudes and the separation time between these wave events. Additionally, we were able to mimic the wave-wave interactions observed in real-case scenarios. Our goal is to relate these findings to the sediment transport processes in the swash zone, where interactions could develop a potential impact on the sediment transport mechanism and possible morphological changes.
