The Influence of Sea Level Rise on the Regional Interdependence of Coastal Infrastructure [PDF]

, 2018
Sea level rise (SLR) is placing both immediate and long-term pressures on coastal communities to take protective actions. Projects in the United States, and in many locations throughout the world, generally involve local jurisdictions raising the ...

Development of a composite sea wall wave energy converter system [PDF]

, 2015
The cost-effective utilization of wave energy is still a major engineering challenge. Shoreline locations for Wave Energy Converters (WECs) offer lower wave energy densities when compared with offshore locations, but give significant advantages from ...

Three-dimensional steep wave impact on a vertical plate with an open rectangular section [PDF]

, 2017
The present study treats the three-dimensional hydrodynamic slamming problem on a vertical plate subjected to the impact of a steep wave moving towards the plate with a constant velocity. The problem is complicated significantly by assuming that there is

Ecological enhancement techniques to improve habitat heterogeneity on coastal defence structures [PDF]

, 2018
Sea level rise and higher storm frequency are increasing the need for the placement of hard coastal defences worldwide. The majority of these defences lack optimal habitats for intertidal species, resulting in low diversity and abundance.

VERTICAL SEA WALL CREST MODIFICATIONS FOR OVERTOPPING

Coastal Engineering Proceedings, 2018
Crest modifications such as a storm wall, parapet or a bullnose are widely used to reduce the wave overtopping over coastal structures where spatial and visual demands restrict the crest heights, especially in urban areas. Although reduction factors of these modifications have been studied for sloped structures in EurOtop Manual (2016), there is ...

Controlling near shore nonlinear surging waves through bottom boundary conditions

, 2016
Instead of taking the usual passive view for warning of near shore surging waves including extreme waves like tsunamis, we aim to study the possibility of intervening and controlling nonlinear surface waves through the feedback boundary effect at the ...

Assessing the costs of adapting to sea-level rise: a case study of San Francisco Bay [PDF]

, 1990
Atmospheric concentrations of carbon dioxide (CO2), methane (CH4), nitrous oxide (N2O), tropospheric ozone (O3), chlorofluorocarbons (CFCs), and other trace gases are growing due to human activities.
