Tsunamis pose a substantial threat to coastal communities around the globe. To counter
their effects, several hard and soft mitigation measures are applied, the choice of which …

Rising sea levels are causing more frequent flooding events in coastal areas and generate
many issues for coastal communities such as loss of property or damages to infrastructures …

In this paper, an extended numerical analysis of the “confined-crest impact”(hereinafter
referred as “C–CI”), induced by non-breaking waves on recurved parapet walls, is presented …

This study investigates the variation of wave impact loads with the geometrical
configurations of recurve retrofits mounted on the crest of a vertical seawall. Physical model …

The beach drainage can be included among the soft engineering methods aimed to
counteract the shoreline retreat related to the sediment redistribution along the beach …

The function of main port breakwaters is to protect harbour basins from incoming waves and
currents. In the event that a maritime terminal is placed on the inner side of a main …

As commercial and residential areas are actively developed around the coastal area with
excellent scenery, installing coastal structures such as seawalls and breakwaters is …

As part of a conceptual design study, 2D physical model tests have been conducted to
determine the required geometry (height and shape) of a wave wall located on top of a …

The aim of the present paper is to give some preliminary guidelines for the design of
recurved parapet wall. The results of the work are carried out by menas of numerical …
