0 Comments

 
I am really glad to announce the launch of the Special Issue entitled "Modelling of Harbour and Coastal Structures" in the Journal of Marine Science and Engineering (Publisher: MDPI), with Prof. Theophanis V. Karambas and myself as Guest Editors.

This Special Issue invites original scientific contributions on topics including:
  • Harbour and coastal structures design and upgrading (seawalls, revetments, bulkheads, jetties, emerged/submerged groins and breakwaters, artificial reefs, etc.).
  • Wave agitation and siltation problems in harbour basins and approach channels.
  • Shoreline erosion control downcoast of harbours.
  • Harbour layout design.

Research articles, review articles and case studies are welcome; contributions can be based on numerical, physical or combined numerical and physical modelling.

The deadline for manuscript submissions is set to November 20th, 2020.

More information are available at: Link.

The Special Issue flyer can be downloaded from: Link.
