Semicircular Coastal Defence Structures: Impact of Gap Spacing on Shoreline Dynamics during Storm Events

open access: yesJournal of Marine Science and Engineering
Coastal erosion poses significant challenges to shoreline management, exacerbated by rising sea levels and changing climate patterns. This study investigates the influence of gap spacing between semicircular coastal defence structures on shoreline ...

Sensitivity of coastal jet structure to coastal topography

open access: yes, 2003
Fifth Conference on Coastal Atmospheric and Oceanic Prediction and Processes, August 5-8, 2003 A low-level core of high wind speeds aligned along the U.S. West Coast, known as the coastal jet, is a persistent feature during the summer months. The seasonal preference for such a feature is a function of several conditions; warm temperatures inland, cool ...

Concepts of Design of Coastal Structures

open access: yesCoastal Engineering 1976, 1976
Certain design of the existing and proposed coastal structures for lateral loading in the United States is presently based upon the use of timber which is structurally inefficient in the elastic range. Figure 1, for example, indicates the plan of timber pile structure.

Residential Docks and Piers: Inventory of laws, regulations, and policies for the New England region [PDF]

open access: yes, 2006
While the homes threatened by erosion and the developer illegally filling in marshlands are the projects that make the headlines, for many state regulatory programs, it’s the residential docks and piers that take up the most time. When is a dock too long?

ECONOMICS OF COASTAL STRUCTURES

open access: yesCoastal Engineering Proceedings, 1951
The engineer is constantly called upon to make an economic analysis of proposed engineering works. His analysis is just as trustworthy as his base information. In some cases experience and knowledge are so complete that an estimate can be accepted with assurance of great accuracy.
