Impact of Nonlinear Standing Waves Underneath a Deck [PDF]
A theoretical approach was applied to investigate the impact of nonlinear standing waves underneath a horizontal deck. A solution was achieved by applying a boundary element method. The model was applied to predict impact pressure underneath a deck.

Field Investigation into Abrasion of Concrete at a Coastal Stepped Revetment: A U.K. Case Study
Although concrete abrasion damage is a major maintenance challenge for coastal structures fronted by beaches with hard coarse sediments, there are no readily available field studies that have measured abrasion damage of known concrete mixtures under ...

Hydrodynamics and Morphodynamics Performance Assessment of Three Coastal Protection Structures
Coastal areas accommodate a great part of large metropolises as they support a great amount of economic and leisure activities. The attraction of people to coastal zones is contributing to an intense and continuous urbanization of these areas, while the ...
