Coasts Marine Structures And Breakwaters

The ICE Coasts, Maritime Structures and Breakwaters conference series is the leading international forum for the presentation of the latest developments in coastal and maritime engineering. This book is provided as 2 individual volumes.

The ICE Coasts, Maritime Structures and Breakwaters conference series, sponsored by the ICE for over thirty years, is the leading international forum for the presentation of the latest developments in coastal and maritime engineering.

Whilst retaining the historical coverage on shoreline structures, coastal processes, and design and construction of breakwaters and related structures, this book extends the marine energy theme; with emphasis on aspects at the civil and coastal engineering interface, such as fluid loadings, resource modelling, interactions with the environment.

The ICE Coasts, Maritime Structures and Breakwaters conference series, sponsored by the ICE for over thirty years, is the leading international forum for the presentation of the latest developments in coastal and maritime structures. The tenth conference was the largest in the history of the series attracting over 450 delegates and 130 papers across 3 plenary and 27 parallel sessions. In addition to the papers presented, these proceedings retain the tradition of including full discussions from each session.

The 2 volume proceedings of the 9th ICE Conference on Coastal Structures and Breakwaters discusses the state of the art in analysis, design and construction of breakwaters and other types of coastal structures, including interaction between coastlines and structures, and vice versa.A vital resource for any practitioner involved in coastal engineering, or development and management of the coastal zone, these ICE sponsored conferences have been driving change and setting the agenda for over 25 years.

These conference proceedings include 41 papers from the Seventh International Conference on Coastlines, Structures and Breakwaters organised by the Institution of Civil Engineers.
