Adaptation under extreme events: predictive maintenance for risk reduction
(2022-11)
Article
Open AccessIncreasing human and climatic pressures on coastal systems and their infrastructure has resulted in cumulative loses for ecosystem services (e.g. Sanchez-Arcilla et al, 2022) and increasing degradation of coastal and ... -
Measuring free surface elevation of shoaling waves with pressure transducers
(Elsevier, 2022-08)
Article
Restricted access - publisher's policyAn assessment of formulas to recover wave surface elevation from pressure measurements was carried out in the present study. The investigation focused on the formulas’ performance in the shoaling region, i.e. where the ... -
Enhanced dual filter for floating wind lidar motion correction: The impact of wind and initial scan phase models
(Multidisciplinary Digital Publishing Institute (MDPI), 2022-09-21)
Article
Open AccessAn enhanced filter for floating Doppler wind lidar motion correction is presented. The filter relies on an unscented Kalman filter prototype for floating-lidar motion correction without access to the internal line-of-sight ... -
Barriers and enablers for upscaling coastal restoration
(Elsevier, 2022-12)
Article
Open AccessCoastal restoration is often distrusted and, at best, implemented at small scales, which hampers its potential for coastal adaptation. Present technical, economic and management barriers stem from sectoral and poorly ... -
Relationship between eroded volume and main scour hole dimensions near quay walls caused by internal counter-rotating twin-propellers
(2022-07-14)
Article
Open AccessThe present study aims at computing and analysing the eroded sediment volumes induced by twin-propeller jets near a vertical quay wall from the main geometric characteristics of the scour hole. Two different scouring ... -
Wave overtopping at near-vertical seawalls: influence of foreshore evolution during storms
(2022-10)
Article
Open AccessThis work presents the results of an investigation on how wave overtopping at a near-vertical seawall at the back of a sandy foreshore is influenced by sequences of erosive storms. The experiments were carried out in the ... -
Near-bed sediment transport during offshore bar migration in large-scale experiments
(2022-05)
Article
Open AccessThis study presents novel insights into hydrodynamics and sediment fluxes in large-scale laboratory experiments with bichromatic wave groups on a relatively steep initial beach slope (1:15). An Acoustic Concentration and ... -
Effects of extreme climatic events on the hydrological parameters of the estuarine waters of the Amazon coast
(2022-09)
Article
Restricted access - publisher's policyOscillations in rainfall levels are one of the principal factors that determine seasonal shifts in physicochemical and hydrobiological variables, and exceptional climate events can have an enormous effect on the characteristics ... -
Beach profile changes induced by surrogate Posidonia Oceanica: laboratory experiments
(2022-08)
Article
Restricted access - publisher's policyNew flume experiments with surrogate seagrass meadows are presented. The experiments included the creation of a full-scale and realistic Posidonia Oceanica model to evaluate the effect over wave attenuation, sediment ... -
Water exchanges in Mediterranean microtidal harbours
(2022-07)
Article
Open AccessMediterranean ports feature complex layouts and exert important environmental pressures in squeezed coastal zones. They experience mild meteo-oceanographic conditions during part of the year, leading to water velocities ... -
Simulation of 3D overtopping flow–object–structure interaction with a calibration-based wave generation method with DualSPHysics and SWASH
(Springer, 2022-03)
Article
Restricted access - publisher's policyOngoing climate change is a significant threat to coastal communities. To understand potential risks during extreme storm events, detailed post-overtopping processes are investigated using DualSPHysics and SWASH with a ... -
Assessment and improvement of the wave generation accuracy using a wave separation method
(2022-04)
Article
Open AccessFree-wave contamination is a non-desirable but frequent characteristic in many wave tank experiments. Higherorder wave generation is not widely implemented yet, whereas the effectiveness of active wave absorption systems ...
