Environmental Impact of Geosynthetics in Coastal Protection. [PDF]
Geosynthetic materials are applied in measures for coastal protection. Weathering or any damage of constructions, as shown by a field study in Kaliningrad Oblast (Russia), could lead to the littering of the beach or the sea (marine littering) and the discharge of possibly harmful additives into the marine environment.

THE USE OF MANGROVES IN COASTAL PROTECTION [PDF]
The objective of this research is to obtain generic relations between attenuated wave heights and various vegetation and topographical scenarios. Subsequently, it is aimed to find out what is the actual cost profit of a dike construction behind a mangrove zone comparing to the case when mangroves are absent.

The Focusing Waves Induced by Bragg Resonance with V-Shaped Undulating Bottom
Intensive wave reflection occurs when the wavelengths of the incident waves and bottom undulations are in a 2:1 ratio. Existing studies have included the Bragg resonance phenomenon of waves passing over a continuous undulating bottom parallel to and ...
