Book COASTAL ENGINEERING  SECOND EDITION

Download or read book COASTAL ENGINEERING SECOND EDITION written by MANI, J. S. and published by PHI Learning Pvt. Ltd.. This book was released on 2018-07-01 with total page 581 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The present edition, with new title Coastal Engineering, is the enlarged and updated volume of the book origin-ally published under the title Coastal Hydrodynamics in 2012. The book provides an overview of world population and ocean resources, natural threats and man-made hazards, and their impact on coastal environment. It discusses the fundamentals of wind, waves, tides and fluid flow and describes commonly adopted wave theories in coastal engineering. The text explains the methods for estimating wave forces on coastal structures, procedures for the analysis of wave data, and sediment transport. Apart from the estimation of beach profile evolution and shoreline change, the book discusses key aspects related to the design of different coastal structures. NEW TO THE SECOND EDITION • Includes two new chapters on Beach Profile and Shoreline Evolution and Design of Breakwaters and Coastal Protective Structures • Colour photographs are appended at the end of the book KEY FEATURES • Worked-out examples will benefit the reader to understand and solve variety of coastal engineering problems. • Exercises given at the end of each chapter would benefit the reader to get exposed to a variety of practical problems related to coastal engineering. TARGET AUDIENCE • B.Tech./M.Tech. (Ocean Engineering/ Marine Engineering)

Book Approximate Upper Limit of Irregular Wave Runup on Riprap

Download or read book Approximate Upper Limit of Irregular Wave Runup on Riprap written by John P. Ahrens and published by . This book was released on 1988 with total page 372 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This report describes methods to calculate the approximate upper limit of runup on riprap revetments caused by irregular wave action. A formula to predict the maximum runup is developed from one laboratory study and compared to data from a second study. The formula is found to fit the data of both studies quite well. A slightly improved version of the formula is then developed by combining the data from both studies. The improved formula has little or no systematic error associated with structure slope, water depth, or wave conditions and is easy to use. Errors between predicted and observed elevations of the maximum runup had a root mean square value of approximately 12 percent. Keywords: Irregular waves; Prediction method; Revetments; Riprap; Runup.

Book Design Of Coastal Hazard Mitigation Alternatives For Rising Seas

Download or read book Design Of Coastal Hazard Mitigation Alternatives For Rising Seas written by David Basco and published by World Scientific. This book was released on 2020-07-02 with total page 1031 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This timely book is about how to design alternatives to reduce coastal flood and wave damage, erosion, and loss of ecosystems facing an unknown future of sea level rise. The latest theories are interlaced with applied examples from the authors' 48 years of experience in teaching, research, and as a practicing, professional engineer in coastal engineering. The design process takes into consideration all the design constraints (scientific, engineering, economic, environmental, social/political/institutional, aesthetic, and media) to meet today's client needs, expectations, and budgets for an uncertain future.The book is organized as a textbook for graduate students. And, it is a self-contained reference for government and consulting engineers responsible for finding solutions to coastal hazards facing the world's coastal populations. New solutions are included in the book that help people of all socio-economic levels living at the coast. Both risk reduction metrics quantified in monetary terms, and increased resilience metrics quantified as vulnerability reduction must now be taken into consideration to make equitable design decisions on hazard mitigation alternatives.In the Anthropocene Era, under 'deep uncertainty' in global mean sea level predictions for the future, today's designs must mitigate today's storm damages, and be adaptable for the unpredictable water levels and storms of the future. This book includes a design 'philosophy' for water levels to year 2050 and for the long term from 2050 to 2100. Multiple spreadsheets are provided and organized to aid the design process.This is an exciting time to be 'thinkers' as Civil/Coastal engineers.Related Link(s)
