Corrosion and Degradation of Materials in Marine Environments: Implications for Coastal and Offshore Infrastructure

Engineering Reports, Volume 8, Issue 7, July 2026.
This study presents a failure‐oriented analysis of corrosion in marine infrastructure, linking degradation mechanisms to crack initiation, fatigue propagation, and structural failure. A unified framework is proposed to connect environmental exposure, material degradation, and reliability, supporting failure prediction, inspection planning, and life ...

Wave Reflection on Interlocking Concrete Block Submerged Breakwater

Jurnal Teknik Hidraulik, 2018
When a large dimension of rock needed for an armored layer of breakwater, the scarcity of it became a major adversity, because of that many research subject of using concrete as a substitute for rock performed.

The Structure and Lifecycle of Stratified Mixing by Shear Instabilities in Continuously Forced Flows

Journal of Geophysical Research: Oceans, Volume 131, Issue 7, July 2026.
Abstract The turbulent energy cascade of ocean mixing remains poorly understood at geophysically large Reynolds numbers (Re $\mathrm{R}\mathrm{e}$). Here we propose a new conceptual model for the structure of small‐scale mixing grounded in high‐resolution multibeam echosounding observations from the mouth of the Connecticut River, a shallow salt‐wedge ...

Experimental Study on Wave Transmission and Reflection at Impermeable Submerged Breakwaters

International Journal of Coastal and Offshore Engineering, 2017
Submerged breakwaters are a special type of breakwater associated with low wave reflection. They can also save large quantities of engineering resources from the view of economics.

Numerical Simulation of Solitary Wave Induced Flow Motion around a Permeable Submerged Breakwater

Journal of Applied Mathematics, 2012
This paper presents a numerical model for the simulation of solitary wave transformation around a permeable submerged breakwater. The wave-structure interaction is obtained by solving the Volume-Averaged Reynolds-Averaged Navier-Stokes governing ...

Surface complexity and gastropod exclusion drive colonization of an intertidal eco‐engineered structure

Journal of Applied Ecology, Volume 63, Issue 7, July 2026.
Habitat complexity and grazing by invertebrate molluscs shaped community structure and ecosystem functioning on eco‐engineered substrates through distinct mechanisms. Increasing structural complexity increased invertebrate species richness with limited effects on macroalgae and carbon flux, while grazer exclusion had strong effects on macroalgal ...

Numerical Study over the Effects of a Designed Submerged Breakwater on the Coastal Sediment Transport in the Pescara Harbour (Italy)

Journal of Marine Science and Engineering, 2020
In 1997, in front of the Pescara Harbour (Italy), a detached breakwater was constructed. In the successive years, the sediment transport due to the combined action of waves and coastal currents, in the area between the detached breakwater and the ...

An Overview of Tsunami Hazards in the Southwest Pacific Ocean

New Zealand Journal of Geology and Geophysics, Volume 69, Issue 2, June 2026.
The southwest Pacific region is geologically complex and exhibits all the principal causes of tsunami generation. While contemporary events and historical catalogs indicate that trans‐Pacific tsunamis have affected this area (∼18% of tsunamis reported globally), it is unique in that a large part of the tsunami effects over the ∼200‐year historical ...

Significant Coastal Dune Loss Challenges California's Climate Resilience and Biodiversity Goals

Earth's Future, Volume 14, Issue 6, June 2026.
Abstract Coastal sand dunes support unique biodiversity and buffer beaches and communities against storm impacts. However, these sensitive and dynamic ecosystems are increasingly threatened by erosion, sea‐level rise (SLR), and encroaching coastal development.
