This book was released on 1996-01-01 with total page 603 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Coastal engineering is a relatively new discipline within the field of civil engineering. The first International Coastal Engineering Conference was convened in Long Beach, California, in 1950. The theme of the twenty-fifth or silver ICCE held in Orlando, Florida, in September, 1996, was History and Heritage of Coastal Engineering to honor those individuals and institutions contributing to the foundations of the discipline. As part of the celebration at this premier technical conference, this volume was conceived to document the history of coastal engineering in the 15 countries which have hosted the ICCE. Coastal engineering works have been conducted for hundreds and even thousands of years for port development, coastal hazard protection, and reclamation of land from the sea. The needs of the different countries and the approaches taken are unique and document the evolution of society and its relation with the coast from 15 perspectives. ancestors, as well as the accomplishments made in modern times as documented in this volume rich with information, colorful anecdotes, and citations to many almost-forgotten original references worthy of re-examination.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book contains more than 300 papers presented at the 28th International Conference on Coastal Engineering, held in Cardiff, Wales, in July 2002. It is divided into five parts: coastal waves; nearshore currents, swash, and long waves; coastal structures; sediment transport; and coastal morphology, beach nourishment, and coastal management. The papers cover a broad range of topics, including theory, numerical and physical modeling, field measurements, case studies, design, and management. Coastal Engineering 2002 provides engineers, scientists, and planners with state-of-the-art information on coastal engineering and coastal processes.
Download or read book American Coastal Defenses 1885 1950 written by Terrance McGovern and published by Bloomsbury Publishing. This book was released on 2012-06-20 with total page 170 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the late-19th century, with the advances in technology and the increase in America's economic stature, a new round of fortification building began in the United States and its overseas territories. Locations such as Portland, Boston, New York, Baltimore, Charlestown, Savannah, Key West, Los Angeles and San Francisco were all extensively fortified. This book provides a concise introduction to the design, development and purpose of American coastal defenses in the "modern" era (1885–1950), a period defined by the use of concrete, steel, and powerful breech-loading rifles. It covers the emplacements, weaponry, equipment, and people that defended their country in times of great change and uncertainty.

This book was released on 2015-04-29 with total page 533 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The aim of this book is to provide a comprehensive overview of Coastal Engineering from basic theory to engineering practice. The authors of this book are worldwide authorities in the field. Each chapter deals with an important topic in the field of coastal engineering. The topics are of recent deep concern all over the world motivated by the 2004 Indian Ocean Tsunami, 2005 Hurricane Katrina, 2011 Tohoku Earthquake Tsunami and other natural disasters.For proper coastal zone management, a broad range of knowledge is necessary. This book provides a basic understanding of the theories behind the diverse natural phenomena within the coastal areas, such as waves, tsunamis and sediment transport. The book also introduces various coastal conservation technologies such as coastal structures and beach nourishment. Finally, coastal zone management practices in the USA, Europe, and Japan are introduced.Each chapter is self-standing and readers can begin from any topic depending on their interest.
