The conference was organized in Santander, Spain, from 22 to 26 May, 2018, by the Instituto de Hidráulica Ambiental de la Universidad de Cantabria, IHCantabria. Coastlab18 welcomed 175 attendees from 18 different countries. The technical program included three renowned keynote lectures and 120 presentations focused on theoretical and practical aspects related to physical modelling in the field of coastal and ocean engineering. Coastal and ocean structures, breakwaters, revetments, laboratory technologies, measurement systems, coastal field measurement and monitoring, combined physical and numerical modelling, physical modelling case studies, tsunamis, and coastal hydrodynamics were the main topics covered in the conference. This book attempts to cover, as completely as possible, all the topics presented during the conference. The papers were accepted after a peer-review process based on their full text.History of engineering and technologybicsscAbbott-Firestone Curveaquaculturearmor layerarmor stabilitybeach managementbermbichromatic wavesbimodal seasbound wavesbreaking wave conditionsbreaking wavescoastal floodingcombined field experiment and numerical modelingcrossing seasCubipod®damage characterizationdamage parametersdikesDNS modeldragdune erosionecosystem serviceserosionexperimentshorizontal foreshorehydraulic stabilityinertiainfragravity waveslaboratorylaboratory experimentslaboratory testslandslide waveslength effectlinear waveslong-term developmentlow-crested structuresMediterranean Seamomentum balancemonitoring programmound breakwatermound breakwatersn/anature-basednon-overtoppingnonlinear wavesnumerical wave modelingoblique wavesoperational systemoutdoor wave basinovertoppingoverwashphysical model experimentsphysical model testphysical model testspressure gradientreflection separationregular wavesrepetition testsrock slopesscour and shear stressscouringsea defensessea level risesemi-submergedshingle foreshoresloping wallstabilityStepped revetmentswelltsunamisvegetation developmentvertical barriervertical cylinderwave basinwave flumewave forcewave forecastwave impactwave modellingwave run-upwavemaker applicabilitywavemaker theorywind wavesXBeachHistory of engineering and technologyLara Javier Lópezedt1312698Maza MariaedtLara Javier LópezothMaza MariaothBOOK9910557496003321Selected Papers from Coastlab18 Conference3030926UNINA04877nam 22006855 450 991025429720332120251128135941.03-319-66032-210.1007/978-3-319-66032-5(CKB)4100000001381578(DE-He213)978-3-319-66032-5(MiAaPQ)EBC6315360(MiAaPQ)EBC5591566(Au-PeEL)EBL5591566(OCoLC)1015676350(PPN)222228156(EXLCZ)99410000000138157820171205d2017 u| 0engurnn#008mamaatxtrdacontentcrdamediacrrdacarrierA Mathematical Approach to Protein Biophysics /by L.

This book will help readers to understand how certain biological systems involving proteins function as digital information systems despite the fact that underlying processes are analog in nature. The in-depth explanation of proteins from a quantitative point of view and the variety of level of exercises (including physical experiments) at the end of each chapter will appeal to graduate and senior undergraduate students in mathematics, computer science, mechanical engineering, and physics, wanting to learn about the biophysics of proteins. L. Ridgway Scott has been Professor of Computer Science and of Mathematics at the University of Chicago since 1998, and the Louis Block Professor since 2001. He obtained a B.S. degree (Magna Cum Laude) from Tulane University in 1969 and a PhD degree in Mathematics from the Massachusetts Institute of Technology in 1973. Professor Scott has published over 130 papers and three books, extending over biophysics, parallel computing and fundamental computing aspects of structural mechanics, fluid dynamics, nuclear engineering, and computational chemistry. Ariel Fernández (born Ariel Fernández Stigliano) is an Argentinian-American physical chemist and mathematician. He obtained his Ph. D. degree in Chemical Physics from Yale University and held the Karl F. Hasselmann Endowed Chair Professorship in Bioengineering at Rice University. He is currently involved in research and entrepreneurial activities at various consultancy firms. Ariel Fernández authored three books on translational medicine and biophysics, and published 360 papers in professional journals. He holds two patents in the field of biotechnology.Biological and Medical Physics, Biomedical Engineering,1618-7210BiomathematicsSystems biologyBiological systemsProteinsClinical biochemistryMathematical and Computational Biologyhttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/M31000Systems Biologyhttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/P27050Protein Sciencehttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/L14040Medical Biochemistryhttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/H35005Biomathematics.Systems biology.Biological systems.Proteins.Clinical biochemistry.Mathematical and Computational Biology.Systems Biology.Protein Science.Medical Biochemistry.571.4Scott L.
