Journal of Waterway, Port, Coastal and Ocean Engineering

Aims & Scope✦ Inferred from recent articles

The journal publishes research on coastal and waterway engineering, focusing on fluid dynamics, sediment transport, and coastal structures. Topics include wave action on fluid mud, shoaling rates in navigation channels, seawall functionality, sediment budgets, beach and dune systems as flood defense, floating breakwaters, nearshore wave modeling, port operations and disruptions, inland waterway accident analysis, vessel wakes and sediment transport, storm surge risk assessment, data assimilation in hydrodynamic models, scour induced by inundation and propellers, dredged material placement and stability, tidal boundary layers and bedload transport, and nutrient transport in estuaries. The research often involves experimental studies, numerical modeling, and data analysis, with applications in coastal protection, navigation, and environmental management.
