Date: May 13-16,
2024
Venue: Delft, the
Netherlands
Summary: The 9th
Conference on Physical Modelling in Coastal Engineering - Coastlab24 will be
held in May 13, 2024 to May, 16 2024. Welcome to join in! The following is the
detailed introduction: CoastLab is a conference whose focus is on Physical
Modelling in Coastal Engineering and Science. CoastLab is organized under
the auspices of and in collaboration with the Coastal and Maritime Hydraulics
Committee of the International Association of Hydro-Environment Engineering and
Research (IAHR). Coastlab24 builds on the success of previous conferences
in Porto (2006), Bari (2008), Barcelona (2010), Ghent (2012), Varna (2014),
Ottawa (2016), Santander (2018) and Zhoushan (2020).
Theme and
Topics:
In
the coastal zone, many developments are taking place, with much attention to
themes like:
? Climate change
impacts, adaptation, mitigation
? Multifunctional and
nature-inclusive designs
? Development of ports
and marine terminals
? Wave, wind and tidal
energy
? Industrial outfalls
To cater for
these developments continuous development in modelling capabilities is
required, in topics such as:
? Coastal hydrodynamics,
coastal processes
?Coastal flooding, flood
prevention, shore protection
?Coastal and ocean
structures, breakwaters, revetments
? Scour, sediment
transport, morphology
? Wave-structure
interactions, loading, response
? Wave run-up and
overtopping
? Laboratory technologies,
measurement systems
?Synoptic measurement
systems (e.g. laser scanning, imaging, motion tracking, Particle Image
Velocimetry)
? Coastal field
measurement and monitoring
? Wave synthesis,
generation, and analysis
? Scale effects and
uncertainty analysis
? Composite modelling
and validation (physical, numerical, field, and AI)
? Extreme events –
assessment and mitigation
? Tsunami hydrodynamics,
impacts, and mitigation
? Mixing, water quality
? Physical modelling
case studies
? Navigation, ship
motions
Presentations
will be given, and discussions will be held about these topics. The programme
includes PhD workshops, welcome reception, technical tour plus banquest, and
optional post conference tour. Moreover, an exhibition with companies and
suppliers will be present.
