A proper design of offshore and coastal structures requires further knowledge about extreme wave events. Such waves are highly nonlinear and may occur unexpectedly due to diverse reasons. One of these reasons is wave-wave ...

This study is based on the data obtained from tests carried out in the Large Wave Flume (Grosser Wellenkanal (GWK)) in Hannover in the frame of a joint research project of Ghent University (Belgium) and Forschungszentrum ...

A risk-based strategy for monitoring, inspection and maintenance (MIM) is described as a key component of an overall framework for life-cycle engineering and management. Its application for coastal structures is exemplarily ...
