3D Numerical Modeling and Quantification of Oblique Wave Forces on Coastal Bridge Superstructures
Journal of Marine Science and Engineering, 2022 Simply supported bridges comprise the majority of bridge systems in coastal communities and are susceptible to severe damage from extreme waves induced by storms or tsunamis. However, the effects of oblique wave impacts have been less investigated due to

Journal of Marine Science and Engineering, 2021 The recession of a coast can destabilize coastal cliffs. The stability of a cliff is controlled by a rock bridge. Identifying the volume-expansion point of rock bridges is crucial to assess cliff stability, but currently there are few identifying methods.

Numerical Investigation of Wave Force on Coastal Bridge Decks Close to a Sloping Seabed
Journal of Marine Science and EngineeringLarge waves pose a significant threat to the safety of low-laying coastal bridges. In 2004 and 2005, many coastal bridges were destroyed by the large waves generated by Hurricane Ivan and Katrina.

Digital Filter Design for Force Signals from Eulerian–Lagrangian Analyses of Wave Impact on Bridges
Journal of Marine Science and Engineering, 2022 Finite element (FE) models that simulate wave–superstructure interactions with the coupled Eulerian–Lagrangian (CEL) technique provide a viable and economical solution to estimate wave impact forces on bridge superstructures. One of the main drawbacks of

Improvements to the detection and analysis of external surges in the North Sea [PDF]
Natural Hazards and Earth System Sciences, 2023 External surges are a key component of extreme water levels in the North Sea. Caused by low-pressure cells over the North Atlantic and amplified at the continental shelf, they can drive water-level changes of more than 1 m at the British, Dutch and ...
