Large (km-scale) mangrove forests can provide protection to shorelines and near-coast
structures during extreme coastal flood events, including tsunamis and tropical cyclones …

This study investigates the potential of a Rhizophora mangrove forest of moderate cross-
shore thickness to attenuate wave heights using an idealized prototype-scale physical …

Mangrove forests grow on tropical and subtropical coastlines and play a significant role in
reducing hydrodynamic energy. However, little information is known about the mechanism of …

A time-domain hybrid finite element-boundary element (FE-BE) method is developed to
investigate nonlinear interaction between ship waves and slender structures. The ship …

Natural and Nature-Based Features (NNBF) are promoted as alternatives to structural flood
protection measures. Progress has been made in understanding the physics and …

In the present study, laboratory experiments were conducted to validate the applicability of a
numerical model based on one-dimensional nonlinear long-wave equations. The model …

Mangroves have demonstrated the potential to provide engineering services to shorelines
through wave attenuation, inland load reduction, and erosion mitigation. However, to …

Vegetated areas on the beach can reduce tsunami heights and reduce the loss of life and
property damage in coasts. Thick trunks and tangled branches attenuate tsunami waves. In …

Ship generated waves (SGW) can cause bank erosion, disturbance to moored boats and
bad impact on the environment especially in confined water. One of the important vessel …
