Integrated Simulation Model for Maintenance and Repair Optimisation for Rubble Mound Coastal Structures Using Markov Chains, Regression and Genetic Algorithms
Abstract:The significant increase in the world population living within close proximity to coastlines has assigned further importance to coastal protection structures. This importance has been even ascertained given the increasing risks posed by climate change. From this standpoint comes the importance of maintenance and repair strategies for coastal protection structures especially in low-lying coastal areas. This research provides an integrated model for the optimisation of maintenance and repair for rubble-mound bre… Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
