Aims & Scope✦ Inferred from recent articles

This journal focuses on the study of wave dynamics and their interaction with offshore and coastal structures. Research includes analyzing hydrodynamic forces on submerged cylinders, loads on monopiles in combined wave and current conditions, and predicting wave-induced moments for offshore wind turbine foundations. It also covers wave forecasting, measurement techniques using LiDAR and buoys, and the behavior of waves over sloping beds.
