Seawalls are critical defence infrastructures in coastal zones that protect hinterland areas
from storm surges, wave overtop** and soil erosion hazards. Scouring at the toe of sea …

This study investigates the reduction in overtop** discharge along a vertical seawall
through the implementation of a recurve retrofitting. A comprehensive set of physical …

In the context of “green” approaches to coastal engineering, the term “eco-engineering” has
emerged in recent years to describe the incorporation of ecological concepts (including …

Coastal defence structures are playing a vital role in protecting coastal communities from
extreme climatic conditions and flooding. With climate change and sea-level rise in the next …

The experimental results of a 1: 30 scaled wave tank experiment of a point-absorber in
extreme sea states and intermediate water depth are studied. The effect of the PTO dam** …

Advances in the development of prediction tools for wave overtop** allow now for
overtop** volumes to be estimated with good accuracy, with the combined use of mean …

Understanding the spatial distribution of wave overtop** water behind coastal protection
structures is essential for assessing the safety level of coastal regions behind the coastal …

Abstract The South China Sea (SCS) is an important channel, which plays a significant role
in global economic trade and in the maintenance of world energy security. A series of …

Experiments are the traditional techniques used in coastal engineering to study complex
wave structure interactions. However, with the advent of high-performance computing, even …

Recent climate change studies highlight that the sea-level rise and increase in intensity and
frequency of extreme climatic events and storm surges will result in catastrophic wave …
