Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Due to the ongoing rise in sea level and increases in extreme wave climates, which consequently change the wave climate, coastal structures such as sea dikes and seawalls are exposed to severe and frequent sea storms. Even though much research related to wave-structure interactions has been carried out, it remains one of the most important and challenging topics in the field of coastal engineering. The recent publications in the Special Issue "Wave Interactions with Coastal Structures" in the Journal of Marine Science and Engineering include a wide range of research, including theoretical/mathematical, experimental, and numerical work related to the interaction between sea waves and coastal structures. These publications address conventional coastal hard structures in deep water zones as well as those located in shallow water zones, such as wave overtopping over shallow foreshores with apartment buildings on dikes. The research findings presented help to improve our knowledge of hydrodynamic processes, and the new approaches and developments presented here will be good benchmarks for future work.

Book Synopsis Coastal Engineering - Waves, Beaches, Wave-Structure Interactions by : T. Sawaragi
Download or read book Coastal Engineering - Waves, Beaches, Wave-Structure Interactions written by T. Sawaragi and published by Elsevier. This book was released on 1995-04-11 with total page 497 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The science and technology of coastal and ocean engineering are closely related to harbour and fishery engineering, because they share a common basic knowledge. However, whereas various publications of coastal engineering, harbour engineering, and ocean engineering have described just the knowledge in their own respective fields, an interrelated and systematic presentation linking them together has yet to be attempted. This book is the first attempt to systematically combine the fields of coastal, ocean, harbour, and fishery engineering from an engineering viewpoint backed by hydrodynamics. Understanding the interaction of waves with structures and sediment, and predicting the associated responses of interest, underlie nearly every problem in coastal and ocean engineering. This is precisely the goal of this book. Although primarily intended for use as a special textbook for graduate students and senior practising engineers, it is hoped that this book will also serve as a useful reference and assist in the further development of this field. With these objectives in mind, each chapter deals with important problems to be solved in the near future. The references included in each chapter should aid students and practising engineers in further broadening their knowledge. This book is the English translation of the original Japanese version published in May, 1991, commemorating the author's retirement from Osaka University. ``Elsevier will be named copyright holder of the English translated publication of the Work.

Book Synopsis Interaction Between Waves and Maritime Structures by : Mariano Buccino
Download or read book Interaction Between Waves and Maritime Structures written by Mariano Buccino and published by Mdpi AG. This book was released on 2021-06-17 with total page 284 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book is the result of a stimulating Special Issue of Water, focusing on the "Interaction between waves and Maritime Structures". This broadly inclusive title allowed the gathering of articles on different topics of engineering concern, making the book appeal to both scientists and practical engineers. Original contributions on evergreen problems, such as wave overtopping at conventional and unconventional coastal structures, wave-induced pressures at vertical walls, hydraulic stability of rubble mound breakwaters and dynamics of crown-walls indeed represent the main core of the book; however, other intriguing research topics are also tackled, including the solution of the Navier-Stokes equations for biphase flows, the downscaling of large maritime structures in a physical lab, floating bodies mechanics and the numerical modeling of coastline evolution.

Book Synopsis The Effects of Random and Nonlinear Waves on Coastal and Offshore Structures by : Benjamin Y. -H. Chen
Download or read book The Effects of Random and Nonlinear Waves on Coastal and Offshore Structures written by Benjamin Y. -H. Chen and published by . This book was released on 1987 with total page 23 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Wave effects on coastal and offshore structures have been studied for more than two decades. Nevertheless, the dynamic behaviors of those structures due to a real sea state, considering the features of randomness, nonlinearity, and directionality, have seldom been investigated. In this report, random and nonlinear wave effects on those structures have been examined analytically. The first part presents a new model of a linear random wave force transformation on a sloping beach as the waves propagate from offshore toward the shore. The second part investigates the effect of nonlinear wave interactions on the dynamic response of a fixed offshore structure. The third part examines the effect of wave groups and an associated forced second-order wave system on the dynamic response of a fixed offshore structure. The results of this report show that random and nonlinear waves play important roles on the dynamic behaviors of coastal and offshore structures. Keywords: Ocean waves, Coastal structures; Random waves; Wave force transformation.
Book Synopsis Dynamics of Wave Breaking at a Coastal Sea Wall by : Arthur L. C. Antoine
Download or read book Dynamics of Wave Breaking at a Coastal Sea Wall written by Arthur L. C. Antoine and published by . This book was released on 2010 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Structural designs barely consider the dynamic scenario of a well-developed impinging wave hitting the structure. The usual area of focus is on static and stability factors (e.g. drag, inertia, resistive forces related to weight, buoyancy, sliding etc). Even the "Factor of Safety" which is regularly used in designs to account for unknown and/or unforeseen situations which might occur implies a degree of uncertainty about the dynamic scenario of breaking waves in the coastal environment. In the present study the hydrodynamics of a coastal structure-turbulent bore interaction was studied by examination (two-dimensional) of the singular case of a plunging breaking wave forming a well developed turbulent bore which impacted on a model sea wall structure. The turbulent bore impact event was found to display similar characteristics to the impact event of other wave shapes, in particular that of a plunging breaker. Examination of the impact event confirmed the conversion of nearly all horizontal velocity to vertical velocity during the "flip through" event. In accordance with theoretical expectations the location of maximum pressure was found to occur just below the still water level (SWL). Resulting pressure data in the present study consisted of two blunt spikes as opposed to the "church-roof" (high spike) shape seen in other results. The shape of the pressure data was attributed to the following: firstly, to the initial impact of the protruding jet of the breaking wave which causes the first maxima, secondly, to the sensor encountering the bulk of the entrapped air hence causing the drop in pressure between the blunt spikes and lastly, to the inherent hydrostatic pressure combined with the compression of the entrapped air bubbles, by the subsequent forward motion of the water within the wave, which causes the second maxima. The point of maximum pressure was found to always be within the second maxima. Observation of the turbulent bore-structure interaction showed that the consequential maximum pressure was a direct result of the compression of entrapped air by the weight of the water in the wave as it continued forward onto the structure combined with the inherent hydrostatic pressure of the wave. The project was conducted in an attempt to contribute to the vast knowledge of coastal structure-wave interactions and to add to the understanding of the physics and characteristics of breaking waves. Whilst numerous studies and experiments have been carried out on the phenomenon of breaking waves by previous researchers the current project highlights the advent of new equipment and technological advances in existing methods.
Book Synopsis Dynamics of the Coastal Zone by : Matteo Postacchini
Download or read book Dynamics of the Coastal Zone written by Matteo Postacchini and published by MDPI. This book was released on 2020-03-19 with total page 182 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The coastal zone is the host to many human activities, which have significantly increased in the last decades. However, sea level rise and more frequent storm events severely affect beaches and coastal structures, with negative consequences and dramatic impacts on coastal communities. These aspects add to typical coastal problems, like flooding and beach erosion, which already leading to large economic losses and human fatalities. Modeling is thus fundamental for an exhaustive understanding of the nearshore region in the present and future environment. Innovative tools and technologies may help to better understand coastal processes in terms of hydrodynamics, sediment transport, bed morphology, and their interaction with coastal structures. This book collects several contributions focusing on nearshore dynamics, and span among several time and spatial scales using both physical and numerical approaches. The aim is to describe the most recent advances in coastal dynamics.
