However, sea level rise and more frequent storm events severely affect beaches and coastal structures, with negative consequences and dramatic impacts on coastal communities. These aspects add to typical coastal problems, like flooding and beach erosion, which already leading to large economic losses and human fatalities. Modeling is thus fundamental for an exhaustive understanding of the nearshore region in the present and future environment. Innovative tools and technologies may help to better understand coastal processes in terms of hydrodynamics, sediment transport, bed morphology, and their interaction with coastal structures. This book collects several contributions focusing on nearshore dynamics, and span among several time and spatial scales using both physical and numerical approaches. The aim is to describe the most recent advances in coastal dynamics.History of engineering and technologybicsscair densityaiRthermoarmourbending failurebroken mooring lineCAEScombined static and dynamic loadscoupled dynamic responsecrushing failuredesign and constructiondesign response spectrumdevelopmentdifferent loading directionselectrical connectionERA5floatingfloating offshore wind turbine (FOWT)foundationsfree vortex wakefrequency response functionsGBFGBSgravity-based structureshorizontal vibrationHVACHVDChydrogen storageice forcejacketLebanonload mitigationloads and responsemarine currentsmarine energymodel testingmonitoringmonopilemooring systemnominal diameternumerical modelsocean energyocean thermaloffshore windoffshore wind energyoffshore wind farmoffshore wind turbineonshore-offshore wind power plantoperation and maintenanceoptimal selection factorsP2Xphysical modelsreignition characteristicsrenewable energiessafety factorscour phenomenonsizesupport structuresupport structuresswitching overvoltagetension leg platformstidaltrailing-edge flaptripodvacuum circuit breakerwaveweightwind energywind power densitywind resourcewind turbine generatorsHistory of engineering and technologyNegro Valdecantos Vicenteauth1338909Esteban María DoloresauthLópez-Gutiérrez José-SantosauthBOOK9910674008103321Offshore Wind Farms3059177UNINA
