Coastal Engineering

The main fields of expertise of the coastal engineering research group are:

  • The design, construction and monitoring of coastal structures (mainly breakwaters and sea dikes)
  • The experimental and numerical modeling of wave propagation and interaction with coastal structures
  • The development and usage of instruments for field measurements
  • Renewable (wave, tide, offshore wind) energy conversion

The specialized staff members are involved in national and international projects on coastal defense and ocean energy conversion.
