The One Health Approach—Why Is It So Important?
Tropical Medicine and Infectious Disease, 2019 It has become increasingly clear over the past three decades that the majority of novel, emergent zoonotic infectious diseases originate in animals, especially wildlife [...]

Wave pattern simulation around the breakwater configuration in Bantan coast, Bengkalis [PDF]
MATEC Web of Conferences, 2019 Bantan Coast in Bengkalis Island that suffered worst abrasion due to wave attack. Protection of abrasion area against the wave can be done by proper lay-out of breakwater with certain configuration.

Interaction of Submerged Breakwater by a Solitary Wave Using WC-SPH Method
Modelling and Simulation in Engineering, 2014 Interaction of a solitary wave and submerged breakwater is studied in a meshless, Lagrangian approach. For this purpose, a two-dimensional smoothed particle hydrodynamics (SPH) code is developed. Furthermore, an extensive set of simulations is conducted.

Design of Breakwaters to Minimize Greenwater Loading on Bow Structures of Fixed Vessels
Fluids, 2021 Greenwater (splashing of water on the deck) loading is a classical problem faced by designers of ship-shaped vessels, which becomes even worse when the vessel operates in harsh weather conditions for an extended period of time.

Analysis of Waikelo Port Breakwater Failure through 2D Wave Model
Civil and Environmental Science Journal, 2018 Waikelo Port is located in South West Sumba of East Nusa Tenggara. The port facilities are protected by breakwater with a vertical wall construction and it was built in a relatively deep ocean at -15m of Low Water Sea Level (LWS).

Journal of Marine Science and Engineering, 2023 Overtopping flow velocity (OFV) and overtopping layer thickness (OTL) are essential parameters in breakwater design. Several empirical equations to predict these parameters are available in many works of literature, but most of the equations were derived

The 2025 Kamchatka Earthquake and Tsunami: Cascading Impacts and Risks to Japan
Earthquake Engineering &Structural Dynamics, EarlyView.ABSTRACT On July 29th, 2025, a large earthquake (Mw 8.8) occurred near the Kamchatka Peninsula. This event caused a tsunami that reached Japan's Pacific coast, even though the source was far away. In this study, we analyze the characteristics of earthquakes and tsunamis and discuss how they relate to the recurrence possibility and risk in Japan.

Dynamic Wave-Induced Settlement Behavior of a Caisson Breakwater Built on a Sandy Seabed
Advances in Civil Engineering, 2021 Monitored breakwater settlements taken from an actual breakwater structure over an extended period of time (more than five years) were analyzed. The analysis revealed that the waves clearly affect the settlement of the breakwater, especially during high ...

Earthquake Engineering &Structural Dynamics, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Disasters exacerbated by climate change have prompted adaptation measures, including seawall heightening, which is an effective approach to protecting coastal areas. However, the combined effect of rising sea levels and tsunamis can create a compound coastal hazard, in which long‐term sea level rise amplifies the impact of tsunamis.
