Load Resistance Factor for Vertical Caisson Breakwater in Korea
Journal of Marine Science and Engineering, 2022 The load resistance factor according to the target reliability level was proposed using 16 vertical breakwaters constructed along the coast of Korea. Limit state functions for sliding and overturning limit states were defined.

Reflections from Coastal Structures
Coastal Engineering 1988, 1988 Wave reflections at and within a coastal harbour may make a significant contribution to wave disturbance in the harbour. Reflected waves may lead to danger to vessels navigating close to structures, and may reduce the availability of berths within the harbour. Wave reflections may also increase local scour or general reduction in sea bed levels. In the

COASTAL PLANNING AND THE EVALUATION OF COASTAL STRUCTURES IN TERMS OF SUSTAINABILITY
Proceedings of International Structural Engineering and Construction, 2016 Coasts are cross-sections of the water and land environments, for thousands of years they formed under the factors of climate, geological, geomorphological, topographic and hydraulic and it has reached a natural balance. But increasingly this natural balance is disrupted due to human impact.

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.
