ERDC's Coastal and Hydraulics Laboratory. experts solve problems in coastal engineering projects for USACE Districts, the National Weather Service, and various other agencies through numerical wave modeling. Waves are a unique feature of the coastal environment. Waves move sediments, erode shorelines, disrupt navigation, and excite harbor oscillations. Therefore, coastal engineering projects require wave information including generation of waves, transformation of waves over complex bathymetry, interaction of waves with currents and structures, and wave propagation in entrances and harbors. |
