Coastlines are constantly threatened by erosion. Effective coastal defense structures with
the least environmental impacts are increasingly required. Submerged and emerged …

Analytical approaches and numerical tools play a significant role in the research and design
of porous and perforated breakwaters. Before a new porous or perforated breakwater …

In this paper, we propose a systematic and time-efficient approach to calibrate 2D VARANS-
VOF models for simulation of wave interaction with porous plate in numerical wave tank. To …

Permeable breakwaters have always been of interest due to their advantages over the
traditional types. This study proposed a stochastic multi-criteria decision-making model to …

Abstract New EL Alamein city (NAC) is located on the northwestern coast of Egypt 110 km
western of Alexandria and just west of Marina resort. The city layout includes internal …

Hard coastal protective infrastructure, such as breakwaters, are a common adaptation
strategy to protect assets, increase safety and improve navigation by reducing erosion and …

The wave transmission, reflection, and energy dissipation of the double rows of vertical piles
suspending horizontal steel C shaped bars are experimentally and theoretically studied …

The study provides a comprehensive examination of single row Rectangular Pile Head
Breakwaters (RPHB), encompassing both non-perforated and perforated variations. In the …

Coastal erosion of beaches has been a common problem around the world. One of the eco-
friendly control measures for coastal erosion is to dissipate the energy of waves impinging …

An economical, ecofriendly and efficient breakwater system is vital for coastal protection and
harbour tranquility. In this regard, various researchers are working to develop the …
