Seawalls are vital for protecting coastal areas. However, the seabed in front of seawalls may undergo severe scouring. This can result destabilization seawall structure, underlying mechanisms which remains unclear. Therefore, an integrated observation system consisting acoustic and optical instruments was deployed areas with used to observe sediment dynamics elements such as waves, currents, ti...

Protecting coastal communities has become increasingly important as their populations grow, resulting in increased demand for engineered shore protection and hardening of over 50% of many urban shorelines. Shoreline hardening is recognized to reduce ecosystem services that coastal populations rely on, but the amount of hardened coastline continues to grow in many ecologically important coastal ...

Anchor plates may be made of steel plates, precast concrete slabs, poured concrete slabs, timber sheets and so forth. In this study, uplift resistance of strip anchor plates embedded in cohesion less soils was assessed by conducting previous works. The previous experimental works mentioned that behavior of horizontal strip anchor plates embedded in cohesion less soil has been assessed by small-...

Abstract Globally, coastal managers are challenged to make informed decisions when selecting infrastructure respond climate-induced sea-level rise and associated hazards like erosion flooding. Classifying the types of permits comparison their potential efficiency, environmental socioeconomic impacts, long-term response rise. At present, information on implemented along area Ghana is not known t...
