This book is based on the author's 34 years of experience as a
teacher/researcher of coastal engineering and management and on
recent reflections on newly relevant issues, such as consequences
of failure, impacts of rising sea levels, aging infrastructure,
real estate development, and contemporary decision making, design
and education.This textbook for undergraduate students,
postgraduate students and practicing engineers covers waves,
structures, sediment movement, coastal management, and contemporary
coastal design and decision making, presenting both basic
principles and engineering solutions. It discusses the traditional
methods of analysis and synthesis (design), but also contemporary
design taking into account environmental impacts, consequences of
failure, and current concerns such as global warming, aging
infrastructure, working with stakeholder groups, regulators,
etc.This second edition expands greatly on the topics of failure
and resilience that surfaced as a result of recent disasters from
hurricane surges and tsunamis. It updates the discussion of design
and decision making in the 21st century, with many new examples
presented.
