A Computational Risk Assessment Model for Breakwaters
In the reliability-risk assessment, the second order reliability index method and the Conditional Expectation Monte Carlo (CEMC) simulation were interrelated as a new Level III approach in order to analyse the safety level of the vertical wall breakwaters. The failure probabilities of sliding and overturning failure modes of the Minikin method for breaking wave forces were forecasted by approxi...

متن کاملMonitoring Accropodes Breakwaters using RGB-D Cameras
Breakwaters are marine structures useful for the safe harbouring of ships and the protection of harbours from sedimentation and coasts from erosion. Breakwater monitoring is then a critical part of coastal engineering research, since it is crucial to know the state of a breakwater at any time in order to evaluate its health in terms of stability and plan restoration works. In this paper we pres...
