Funded Activity Summary

Coupled models for waves, a porous seabed and breakwater interactions. Design of coastal structures such as breakwaters has demanded more accurate and reliable methods for the evaluation of the stability of structures and their foundations. Stability of the breakwater and its foundation is the first key issue for practical engineers. This project will establish the first fully coupled model for wave-seabed-structure interaction. The proposed study will not only enhance the understanding of the complex system, which is an area of vital interest for design of coastal structures, but also contribute to the national development and competitiveness in ocean exploration, reduce the risk of potential environmental damage caused by failure of breakwaters and produce high quality research students.
