Artificial Intelligence and Rubble-Mound Breakwater Stability
Breakwaters are coastal structures constructed to shelter a harbour basin from waves. There are two main types: rubble-mound breakwaters, consisting of various layers of stones or concrete pieces of different sizes (weights), making up a porous mound; and vertical breakwaters, impermeable and monolythic, habitually composed of concrete caissons. This article deals with rubble-mound breakwaters....
متن کاملInspection and Diagnosis of Sines’ West Breakwater
A set of tools that is being developed for the automated inspection of rubble-mound breakwaters, as well as its application to the survey of Sines' west breakwater armour layer, are described. The results from the IRIS surveys are compared to those of the surveys carried out by the Portuguese Hydrographic Institute and first assessment of the structure evolution between 2000 and 2003 is made.
متن کاملForced Motions of a Rigid-Body Breakwater
Now the last and most realistic problem will be investigated. This problem treats the breakwater as a rigid body that undergoes periodic wave forcing. This problem is the most realistic because a breakwater truly has physical dimensions in reality and would behave as a rigid body. Furthermore, if a breakwater is in the sea, then it will feel the effects of waves acting on it and not just the ef...
متن کاملInfluence of a breakwater on nearby rocky intertidal community structure.
It is widely recognised that coastal-defence structures generally affect the structure of the assemblages they support, yet their impact on adjacent systems has been largely ignored. Breakwaters modify the nearby physical environment (e.g. wave action) suggesting a local impact on biological parameters. In the present study, an ACI (After-Control-Impact) design was used to test the general hypo...
متن کاملAuv Navigation Based on Multi-sensor Fusion for Breakwater Observation
Autonomous Underwater Vehicles (AUVs) are suitable for underwater observation, since they can swim freely without an umbilical cable. This paper proposes a robust navigation method for AUVs operating around artificial structures such as piers, quays and breakwaters. This method consists of a State Estimator and a Guidance System, enabling localization in the configuration map as well as followi...
