SPH modelling of the interaction between a solitary wave and moving Tetrapods of a breakwater
(2022)
Conference report
Restricted access - publisher's policyIn 2011, the tsunami in Japan caused big damages in the coastal protection structures where a large number of armour units installed at the breakwaters were scattered. This work presents a numerical tool to simulate the ... -
Numerical simulation of overtopping events in vertical breakwater with the DualSPHysics model
(2022)
Conference report
Restricted access - publisher's policyThe DualSPHysics model is used to reproduce the physical model tests carried out in the large-scale wave flume at CEDEX, in Madrid (Spain), focused on wave overtopping of vertical coastal structure. This work presents the ... -
Composite modelling of the Pont del Petroli pier failure due to extreme sea waves during the winter storm Gloria
(2022)
Conference report
Restricted access - publisher's policyOn January 20th, 2020, the storm Gloria causedthe collapse of the final part of the walkway that connected the seaward platform of the Pont del Petroli pier to the beach of Badalona (Spain). A stretch of about 15 meters ... -
Numerical modelling of floating debris impact on structures during extreme hydrodynamic events
(2022)
Conference report
Restricted access - publisher's policyExtreme hydrodynamic events, such as tsunamis, can transport debris of a very wide range of dimensions, from cohesive sediments to debris such as trees and cars. Large sized floating debris are particularly hazardous for ... -
Assessment of aquaculture rafts exposure at river-borne substances using numerical modelling
(2022)
Conference report
Restricted access - publisher's policyCoastal bays and estuaries with aquaculture activity may show spatial variability on the exposure at river-borne substances such as nutrients, pesticides or pollutants. In function of the relative geographical position of ... -
On adaptive unscented Kalman filtering for floating Doppler wind-lidar motion correction: Effect of the number of lidar measurement heights
(Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE), 2022)
Conference report
Open AccessThis work studies the influence of the number of lidar measurement heights on the performance of the floating Doppler wind lidar motion-correction algorithm, recently published by the authors. The work is in the context ... -
Floating lidar assessment of atmospheric stability in the North Sea
(Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE), 2022)
Conference report
Open AccessIn this work, the 2D parametric-solver algorithm [1] used to assess atmospheric stability from floating Doppler wind lidar (FDWL) measurements is revisited. The algorithm performance is studied using data from IJmuiden ... -
Low-cost tracking system to infer fishing activity from small scale fisheries in Scotland
(Taylor & Francis, 2022)
Conference report
Restricted access - publisher's policyLarge Scale Fisheries (LSF), with Length Over All (LOA) larger than 12 to 15 m are gener- ally subject to national and international regulations that require they carry some form of tracking system that is capable of ... -
Numerical simulation of wave interaction with a suspended cylinder using OpenFOAM
(Taylor & Francis, 2022)
Conference report
Restricted access - publisher's policyThe objective of the present work is to investigate the hydrodynamic loads of a fixed cylinder subjected to regular waves inside a wave flume using OpenFOAM. The suspended cylinder can be considered as a simplification of ... -
PIMA Adapta Costas, a characterisation of flooding and erosion under different climate change scenarios along the Catalan coast
(Multidisciplinary Digital Publishing Institute (MDPI), 2021)
Conference lecture
Open AccessClimate change, with sea level rise as one of its main consequences, will heavily change the dynamics of the coast in the next years. The assessment of the impacts that could cause is a key issue to anticipate measures and ... -
JASON-1 CALVAL experiences in Cape of Begur and Ibiza island
(2005)
Conference report
Open AccessThe direct and indirect calibration experiences made at the Cape of Begur area in 1999, 2000 and 2002, for Topex/Poseidon and at the Ibiza island in 2003 have contributed to the international campaigns made at Harvest ... -
Wave overtopping assessment in DualSPHysics for real sea states of 1000 random waves
(New Jersey Institute of Technology, 2021)
Conference report
Restricted access - publisher's policyIn this work the numerical model DualSPHysics has been applied to study the complex phenomenon of wave overtopping characterising dike-promenade coastal defence layout. The model has been first validated, by comparing the ...
