“…The inland waterway transport load is about 7 million tons per year, which is only 0.4% of the transport market share. One-fourth of this number comprises transport between ports located outside the territory of Poland [47].…”

Based on new policies of the European Union, green technologies are to be mostly considered for power generation. Hydropower generation is one of the essential elements of sustainable energy production. Therefore, specific attention, both economically and technically, needs to be given to this sector of energy production. The Vistula River in Poland is considered an international waterway. The power production potential of the river has been taken into account over the years. However, further configurations are needed to obtain a more in-depth ecological knowledge-base and economic plans, which are socially approved. In an attempt to make the project environmentally friendly, specific attention was put into sustainable transport. Different methods of transport were researched to find the most renewable transport combination, mainly based on waterways. Having performed a cost–benefit analysis related to the economic aspects of the project, it was found that such an investment is highly profitable (B/C = 2.81).

“…Transport is the human activity that consumes the most energy and contributes the most to pollution with CO2 1,2 . One solution leading to a lower energy consumption by transport is the development of the inland waterway transport 3,4 . However over exploitation of waterways for transport can be the cause of the deterioration of rivers.…”

In this work, the ISPHP method proposed by Akbari and Namin in 2013 has been modified by implementing the Taylor expansion of a classical smoothing function. The modified ISPHP method with the Taylor expansion of the smoothing function, the optimization of the solving of Poisson's equation and the wave maker, has been used to simulate the damping of a waves train on an inclined porous structure. The comparison between the numerical results obtained with the modified ISPHP method and the experimental data obtained by Carrasco et al. in 2020 has shown on the one hand that the modified ISPHP method could be used to study the damping of a waves train on an inclined porous structure and on the other hand that the dimensionless number χ could be used to characterize the energy transformations of the interaction of a waves train and an inclined porous structure.
