Wave Interactions with Coastal Structures
Due to the ongoing rise in sea level and increase in extreme wave climates, consequences of the changing wave climate, coastal structures such as sea dikes and seawalls will be exposed to severe and frequent sea storms [...]

Preserve or retreat? Willingness-to-pay for Coastline Protection in New South Wales
Coastal erosion is a global and pervasive phenomenon that predicates a need for a strategic approach to the future management of coastal values and assets (both built and natural), should we invest in protective structures like seawalls that aim to ...

Comparison of the Impact of Akmon, Sta-bar, Sta-pod, Stock cube, and Tribar Armoring Layers on the Level of Flow Rate and Wave Overtopping [PDF]
Breakwaters are structures whose main function is to reduce waves in an area and create a calm basin for the stopping, movement, and maneuvering of floating objects.

Mechanical response of fiber-reinforced sand under cyclic loading [PDF]
Based on the consolidated undrained test under cyclic loading, the mechanical response of fiber-reinforced sand under cyclic loading was studied by varying fiber content (0.2% and 0.4%), fiber length (7 mm and 13 mm), and cyclic stress ratio (0.22, 0.24 ...

Temporal scouring and backfilling processes around a pile group subject to unsteady hydrographs
Pile groups are important hydraulic structures and scouring around them is not only affected by the flow characteristics but also by the number and arrangement of piles in a group.

Implications of climate change for coastal and inter-tidal habitats in the UK [PDF]
Coastal habitats are diverse and vary in the extent to which they are shaped by physiographic processes, such as wave action, wind, tides and sediment availability, and the relative influence of terrestrial and marine environments, e.g.
