Bacterial biofilm colonization and succession in tropical marine waters are similar across different types of stone materials used in seawall construction [PDF]
Frontiers in Microbiology, 2022 Seawalls are important in protecting coastlines from currents, erosion, sea-level rise, and flooding. They are, however, associated with reduced biodiversity, due to their steep orientation, lack of microhabitats, and the materials used in their ...

The Seawall Bargaining Game [PDF]
Games, 2014 Agents located from downstream to upstream along an estuary and exposed to a flooding risk have to invest in facilities like a seawall (or dike). As the benefits of that local public good increase along the estuary, upstream agents have to bargain for ...

Performance Evaluation of DualSPHysics and COMCOT Programs through Numerical Testing for Simulating Tsunami Propagation and Overtopping on Seawalls [PDF]
E3S Web of Conferences, 2023 A tsunami is a destructive wave that can cause massive damage to coastal infrastructure. One of the disaster mitigation measures that can be chosen is the construction of coastal protection infrastructure, such as a seawall.

Multi-Decadal Seawall-Induced Topo-Bathymetric Perturbations along a Highly Energetic Coast
Journal of Marine Science and Engineering, 2022 Seawalls are commonly used worldwide to protect urbanized sea fronts. These alongshore protection structures are often blamed for hydro-sedimentary dynamics perturbations, but without clear and generalizable conclusions on long-term morphodynamic effects.

Risk Assessment of Wave Over-Topping Based on Smoothed-Particle Hydrodynamics Method
Journal of Marine Science and Engineering, 2022 FETSWCM-SWAN and DualSPHysics models are used to study the storm flooding process of Dazuo Seawall in Quanzhou city, Fujian province, China. Firstly, a storm over-topping assessment method is proposed. Secondly, the water level and storm wave at the foot
