<br/><br/>Impact of the Delta Works on the recent developments in coastal engineering -- Coastal structures in international perspective -- Coastal structures: action from waves and ice -- Kaumālapa'u harbor: design and construction challenges of an exposed deepwater breakwater -- Waterfront developments in harmony with nature -- Risk-based channel depth design using Cadet. 
<br/><br/> "Successful coastal and ocean engineering projects rely on practical experience with technical tools and knowledge available to the engineer. Often, problems arise from projects that are too complex for theoretical description, which require that engineers exercise sound judgment in addition to reliance on past practical experience. This book focuses on the latest technology applied in design and construction, effective engineering methodology, unique projects and problems, design and construction challenges, and other lessons learned. In addition, unique practices in planning, design, construction, maintenance, and performance of coastal and ocean projects will be explored"--back cover.
