Coastal Research and Modelling Services delivers comprehensive coastal engineering solutions that balance structural integrity with environmental sensitivity across diverse marine infrastructure needs.

Coastal Research and Modelling Services by topic include:

Hard Structures: Designs and simulations of seawalls, groynes, breakwaters, and revetments to protect shorelines from erosion and wave impact.

Soft Engineering: Design and simulation of beach nourishment, dune restoration, and living shorelines to enhance natural defences and ecological resilience.

Hybrid Coastal Protection: Assessments of nature-based solutions with engineered structures, such as vegetated revetments and eco-enhanced seawalls, to optimise performance and habitat value.

Coastal and Offshore Structures: Design of jetties, piers, offshore platforms, and submerged barriers tailored to site-specific hydrodynamic and geotechnical conditions.

Storm Surge Barriers: Simulation of movable and fixed surge barriers to mitigate flood risks in vulnerable coastal zones, incorporating climate adaptation strategies.

Port and Harbour Engineering: Provides berth design, dredging plans, mooring systems, and siltation control for efficient and sustainable port operations.
