TOPICS
In the coastal zone, many developments are taking place, with much attention to themes like:
- Climate change impacts, adaptation, mitigation
- Multifunctional and nature-inclusive designs
- Development of ports and marine terminals
- Wave, wind and tidal energy
- Industrial outfalls
Papers are welcomed on all the topics where the use of physical modelling and/or measurements to tackle coastal challenges plays a large role.
To cater for these developments continuous development in modelling capabilities is required, in topics such as:
- Coastal hydrodynamics, coastal processes
- Coastal flooding, flood prevention, shore protection
- Coastal and ocean structures, breakwaters, revetments
- Scour, sediment transport, morphology
- Wave-structure interactions, loading, response
- Wave run-up and overtopping
- Laboratory technologies, measurement systems
- Synoptic measurement systems (e.g. laser scanning, imaging, motion tracking, Particle Image Velocimetry)
| - Coastal field measurement and monitoring
- Wave synthesis, generation, and analysis
- Scale Effects and uncertainty analysis
- Composite modelling and validation (physical, numerical, field, AI)
- Extreme events – assessment and mitigation
- Tsunami Hydrodynamics impacts, and Mitigation
- Mixing, water quality
- Physical modelling case studies
- Navigation, ship motions
- Infragravity waves
