The webinar looks at:
-
Wave modelling and wave climates at a project location
-
Extreme events, climate change and combined design wave and water level conditions for design
-
Nearshore and coastal structures
-
Wave structure interaction, and empirical formulae
- Physical model testing and advanced numerical techniques
-
Gain a better awareness of how wave conditions are characterised, and how uncertainty is considered
-
Improved understanding of the wave characteristics used in design
-
Develop an appreciation of the approaches taken to assess and quantify wave actions on nearshore and coastal structures
Members who are involved with projects on the coast or have a general interest in the sea.
