Energy rate balance applied to coastal engineering problems by using RANS-VoF models in numerical wave flumes 
Nowadays, the use of RANS-based models for simulating numerical wave flumes and studying coastal engineering structures is common and allows investigating accurately phenomena that occur in current/wavestructure interactions. Comprehension of energy transformations in these processes can support designers tooptimize the system. In this study, a methodology to evaluate the terms of the energy rate balance in coastalengineering problems is developed. The methodology is applied to the propagation of regular waves in numericalwave flumes, onshore oscillating water column wave energy converter integrated into a vertical breakwater, andtwo types of rubble-mound breakwaters. The direct determination of the energy rate due to viscous and urbulencelosses and the porous resistance in rubble-mound breakwaters are carried out by time integration insidethe computational domain. Besides, the reflected and transmitted energy rates in the flume are calculated bymeans of this methodology, instead of the standard gauge methods, commonly used in physical and numericalflumes. Complementary, studies may be carried out for random incident waves and the methodology can beapplied to 3D wave tanks.

An assessment of 3D scanning methods in physical models
The evaluation of damage progression caused by wave action on physical models of rubble-mound breakwaters can be accomplished through two types of methods: quantifying the movements and falls of the resistant armor elements by visual inspection (the traditional, classical method) or determining the eroded volumes and depths between consecutive surveys of armor layers using sensors and photogrammetric methods (3D scanning methods). Of the latter, one may use techniques such as the so-called "Kinect", "Photogrammetry" and "LiDAR". The end-product of these techniques is, among others, point clouds, which allow obtaining three-dimensional surface models. In this paper, four of the latter techniques (3D scanning methods) are briefly described, and a comparison is made between them regarding their usability in current tests, their advantages and disadvantages, among themselves for a study case of the physical 3D model of the Ericeira breakwater. In evaluating survey quality across the four methods, RMSE (root mean square error) was employed to align obtained point clouds with ground control points (GCP). Notably, Photogrammetry, Kinect, and Azure techniques showed excellent RMSE values. Conversely, the LiDAR-derived-method cloud, using a smartphone with LiDAR sensor and 3dScanner app, fails to yield acceptable and accurate results for the research objectives of this paper.

Development of a Bayesian network-based early warning system for storm-driven coastal erosion
Coastal hazards such as flooding and erosion can cause large economic and human losses. Under this threat, early warning systems can be very cost-effective solutions for disaster preparation. The goal of this study was to develop, test, and implement an operational coastal erosion early warning system supported by a particular method of machine learning. Thus, the system combines Bayesian Networks, and state-of-the-art numerical models, such as XBeach and SWAN, to predict storm erosion impacts in urbanized areas. This system was developed in two phases. In the development phase, all information required to apply the machine learning method was generated including the definition of hundreds of oceanic synthetic storms, modeling of the erosion caused by these storms, and characterization of the impact levels according to a newly defined eerosion iimpact index. This adimensional index relates the distance from the edge of the dune/beach scarp to buildings and the height of that scarp. Finally, a Bayesian Network that acted as a surrogate of the previously generated information was built. After the training of the network, the conditional probability tables were created. These tables constituted the ground knowledge to make the predictions in the second phase. This methodology was validated (1) by comparing 6-h predictions obtained with the Bayesian Network and with process-based models, the latest considered as the benchmark, and (2) by assessing the predictive skills of the Bayesian Network through the unbiased iterative k-fold cross-validation procedure. Regarding the first comparison, the analysis considered the entire duration of three large storms whose return periods were 10, 16, and 25 years, and it was observed that the Bayesian Network correctly predicted between 64% and 72% of the impacts during the course of the storms, depending on the area analyzed. Importantly, this method was also able to identify when the hazardous conditions disappeared after predicting potential consequences. Regarding the Regarding the second validation approach, second validation approach, the k-fold cross-validation procedure was applied to the peak of a set of varying storms and it demonstrated that the predictive skills were maximized (63%

Experimental study of an onshore dual chamber oscillating water column device
A wave flume is used to study a scaled model of a stepped bottom dual-chamber Oscillating Water Column (OWC) installed onshore. Compared to traditional single-chamber OWCs, the use of dual-chambers is expected to widen the range of sea states in which the OWC is more efficient, and the step, in front of the first chamber, boosts the capturing energy capacity of the device. The Power Take-Off (PTO) system is modelled as an air opening in the pneumatic chambers. Several experiments combining regular incident waves and PTO damping conditions are performed. Results of the amplitudes of the free surface elevations inside the chambers show that the device can amplify the incident wave amplitude up to 1.57 times in chamber 2. Results of the primary efficiency show that the device is highly dependent on the PTO damping characteristics and can reach around 40% for a wide range of wave periods. Results of the reflection analysis show that the reflection coefficient is also dependent on the PTO damping characteristics but remain lower than 0.6 for all the studied cases. Sloshing phenomenon (mostly in the cross-section direction) was observed for a wavelength close to the cross-section dimension, impacting negatively on the device pneumatic performance.

Experimental study on drag coefficient of flexible vegetation under non-breaking waves
Laboratory experiments of wave propagation over rigid and flexible vegetation fields, with the same configurations, were conducted to understand the effect of vegetation flexibility on the drag coefficient (CD). The direct method and the least squares method (LSM), based on force and flow measurements, are applied to calculate the CD in the experimental conditions. The formulations of both methods are extended to estimate the CD for flexible vegetation cases. A video analysis was performed to account for the swaying motion. Typically, wave dissipation is lower for flexible than for rigid vegetation of the same configuration, under the same flow condition. Therefore, a proportional effect in the corresponding CD results, obtained from common CD calibration to wave dissipation without considering vegetation motion, is usually observed. However, the present results show that although the wave dissipation was 34% lower for flexible relative to rigid vegetation, the respective CD values were close. CD estimations considering vegetation motion and inertia suggest that CD of flexible vegetation was up to 13% higher relative to rigid vegetation. Accounting for inertia reduced the CD for rigid vegetation up to 7%, while raised the CD for flexible vegetation up to 13%.

Galgamento em estruturas verticais: comparação de dados de ensaios com resultados do modelo numérico AMAZON e de fórmulas empíricas
Neste trabalho estuda-se o galgamento em estruturas marítimas verticais impermeáveis através da aplicação do modelo numérico AMAZON, que é um modelo bidimensional, baseado na resolução das equações não lineares de águas pouco profundas. Para validar a sua aplicação, os resultados de caudal médio galgado obtidos com o modelo foram comparados com os resultados de ensaios em modelo físico bidimensional realizados anteriormente e disponíveis na base de dados do projeto europeu CLASH. Os resultados foram ainda comparados com os das fórmulas empíricas / semi-empíricas de Van der Meer & Bruce (2014), Goda (2008) e de Hedges & Reis (Reis et al., 2013). A fórmula de Van der Meer & Bruce apresenta melhores aproximações aos caudais médios medidos que constam na base de dados do CLASH, seguida da fórmula de Goda e dos resultados do AMAZON, embora estes dois últimos apresentem valores bastante próximos. Assim, enquanto não se fizerem melhorias no modelo e/ou não se estender a outros ensaios a análise feita no âmbito deste trabalho, os resultados sugerem que não há vantagem na sua utilização face às formulações disponíveis, tendo também em conta o tempo computacional significativo exigido para executar o AMAZON.

Galgamento num quebra-mar de talude em cenários de alterações climáticas: resultados obtidos em modelo físico e com fórmulas empíricas
O projeto HYDRALAB+ (H2020-INFRAIA-2014-2015) reúne uma rede Europeia de institutos de hidráulica para o estudo de estratégias de adaptação às alterações climáticas através de ensaios experimentais e cujos resultados são essenciais para a calibração e validação de modelos numéricos, fórmulas empíricas, redes neuronais, etc. Os ensaios experimentais desenvolvidos no LNEC, no âmbito do HYDRALAB+, Tarefa 8.2 do RECIPE tem como objetivo a análise do dano num quebra-mar de talude, do galgamento e do espraiamento para quatro cenários de temporal correspondentes a situações extremas associadas a cenários de alterações climáticas. Os ensaios foram realizados num canal de ondas irregulares no qual foiimplementada uma secção transversal do quebra-mar, com um manto constituído por enrocamento.No presente estudo comparam-se os valores do galgamento medidos nos ensaios em modelo físico com resultados estimados por fórmulas empíricas. Testou-se o efeito de um temporal num cenário de alterações climático, através do aumento da altura significativa de onda com o aumento do nível de água. Foi testado um conjunto de condições de agitação incidentes em combinação com dois níveis de maré.A análise dos resultados é feita com o intuito de estimar com precisão a ocorrência de galgamento em quebra-mares, um fenómeno que ainda se torna mais relevante em cenários de alterações climáticas. Com efeito, nestes cenários é previsível a subida do nível médio do mar, bem como o aumento da intensidade e frequência de temporais, o que pode dar origem a fenómenos de espraiamento/galgamento cada vez mais frequentes, tornando assim cada vez mais vulneráveis as estruturas de proteção costeiras e portuárias, bem como as zonas por elas protegidas.

HIDRALERTA: o sistema e as ferramentas de validação
Este trabalho pretende mostrar os procedimentos utilizados pelo sistema HIDRALERTA para a previsão dos galgamentos costeiros, bem como as ferramentas que têm sido utilizadas para a sua validação. Foram reproduzidas com o sistema as situações de tempestades passadas, para as quais houve relatos documentados de galgamentos significativos e que causaram danos. Esta simulação permitiu perceber a fiabilidade global do sistema e ajustar os limites pré- estabelecimentos para o acionamento de alertas. Com o sistema operacional desde 2015, a documentação que tem sido levantada, através de fotografias e vídeos, pelas autoridades e comunidade locais aquando da previsão da ocorrência de tempestades, têm sido um grande contributo para o melhoramento do sistema. Foi instalado no campo, um sistema de videovigilância que permite detetar e captar automaticamente imagens de galgamentos para comparar com os resultados do sistema. De forma complementar, para avaliação da agitação marítima, utilizam-se as medições da boia ondógrafo instalada junto ao porto e para a validação do fenómeno do galgamento, compararam-se as medições obtidas nos ensaios em modelo físico do perfil tipo do quebra-mar sul, com os resultados da ferramenta neuronal NN_OVERTOPPING2 (Coeveld et al., 2005) (atualmente incorporada no sistema) e com o modelo numérico SWASH (Zijlema et al., 2011) (que se encontra em processo de implementação).

Measuring damage in physical model tests of rubble mounds
This paper studies novel ways to evaluate armour damage in physical models of coastal structures. High-esolution damage data for reference rubble mound breakwaters obtained under the HYDRALAB+ joint-esearch project are analysed and discussed. These tests are used to analyse the way to describe damage, the influence of the sequence of testing, and touches on the possible influence of sea level rise. Results of two test programmes were used. Firstly, 3D physical model tests carried out at the University of Porto, in cooperation with Deltares, were used. Here a wide breakwater trunk was used for statistical reasons. Additionally, 2D test results from LNEC were analysed. Tests for a sea level rise scenario resulted in less damage to the seaside slope.

Numerical analysis of the distribution of incident wave energy on an onshore oscillating water column wave energy converter
In this study, a numerical analysis to evaluate the energy efficiency of an Oscillating Water Column (OWC) wave energy converter is carried out. The device geometry is based on the pilot plant installed on Pico Island, Azores, Portugal. The methodology consists in calculating the percentage of the incident energy that is distributed along the wave energy conversion. The FLUENT® numerical model, which is based on the Reynolds-Averaged Navier-Stokes (RANS) equations, is used. The Volume of Fluid (VoF) method is employed to take into account the water and air fluids. The case study comprises a flume 10 m deep with an onshore OWC at its end. The distribution of the incident wave energy (1 m wave height with a 9 s period) is determined in terms of reflected wave energy, water column oscillation potential energy, pneumatic energy and energy losses due to viscosity and turbulence dissipations. Results show that the incident wave energy is distributed around 37% for the sum of reflected wave energy and viscosity energy loss, 52% for pneumatic energy and 11% for water column oscillation potential energy.

Numerical analysis of the influence of air compressibility effects on the oscillating water column water energy converter chamber
The most studied device used for extracting wave energy is the Oscillating Water Column (OWC). In general, numerical simulations of these cases by means of models based on Reynolds-Averaged-Navier-Stokes (RANS) equations adopt the Volume of Fluid (VoF) method to take into account the water and air whose flows are incompressible. The aim of this study is to investigate the influence of the compressibility effect on the air inside the chamber by means of FLUENT® numerical model. Both water and air flows are still considered incompressible, but, at every instant, a pressure based on an analytical equation that takes into account the turbine characteristic relation (kt) of a Wells turbine and the isentropic transformation of the air is imposed on the top boundary of the chamber. Incident waves with period of 9 s and 1 and 2 m high are imposed in a flume 10 m deep with an onshore OWC at its end (kt = 240 Pa s m-3). Results show differences between incompressible and compressible air around 12% in the air pressure amplitude inside the chamber and about 21% in the average pneumatic power.

Overtopping events in breakwaters: comparison of 2D physical experiments and empirical formulae
Reliable prediction of wave run-up/overtopping and structure damage is a key task in the design and safety assessment of coastal and harbor structures. Run-up/overtopping and damage must be below acceptable limits, both in extreme and in normal operating conditions, to guarantee the stability of the structure as well as the safety of people and assets on and behind the structure. The mean-sea-level rise caused by climate change and its effects on wave climate may increase run-up/overtopping events and make the existing coastal/harbour structures more vulnerable to damage. Accurate estimates, through physical modelling, of the statistics of overtopping waves for a set of climate change conditions, are needed. Project HYDRALAB+ (H2020-INFRAIA-2014-2015) gathers an advanced network of environmental hydraulic institutes in Europe, which provides access to a suite of environmental hydraulic facilities. They play a vital role in the development of climate change adaptation strategies, by allowing the direct testing of adaptation measures and by providing data for numerical model calibration and validation. The use of physical (scale) models allows the simulation of extreme events as they are now, and as they are projected to be under different climate change scenarios.

Evaluation of wave overtopping consequences for risk assessment using ANP methodology
Adverse sea conditions can cause emergency situations associated to wave overtopping, which endanger the safety of people and goods, with negative impacts for society, the economy and the environment. Therefore, a methodology to assess the overtopping risk in port and coastal areas is essential for a proper planning and management of these areas.The Portuguese National Laboratory for Civil Engineering (LNEC) has been developing the HIDRALERTA system, an integrated decision-support tool for port and coastal management, which focus in preventing and supporting the management of emergency situations and the long-term planning of interventions in the study areas. It enables the user to calculate the risk for various port and coastal activities, starting with the characterization of sea-waves, wind field and tide levels at the study regions.HIDRALERTA was already tested at different places in Portugal: Costa da Caparica beach, in Almada, and port of Praia da Vitória, in the Azores. However, in both cases, the evaluation of wave overtopping / flooding consequences was carried out using a quite simple approach. In fact, such consequences were assessed only at a global and qualitative level, based on information provided by the responsible authorities.This paper aims at testing a quantitative methodology to evaluate overtopping consequences: the Analytic Network Process (ANP). This methodology was proposed to solve complex decision-making problems and its objective is to calculate the priorities among decision elements which will define their final weights on the consequences. The ANP approach can produce interdependencies between criteria and compute the respective weight of each criterion. Such a network model with dependence and feedback improves the priorities derived from judgements and makes prediction more accurate. So, the ANP allows comparison among clusters of elements. Furthermore, in this methodology we take into account the impacts of alternatives on the importance of criteria, by normalizing the comparison matrix. Thus, the given alternatives can influence the ranking of criteria.Application of the ANP methodology to the case study of Praia da Vitória port is presented and a consequences level map is obtained.

Sistema de alerta para a navegação em portos
Apresenta-se um novo sistema de alerta para navios amarrados em portos que se encontra em desenvolvimento no Laboratório Nacional de Engenharia Civil. O sistema SWAMS_ALERTA é um sistema de previsão e alerta baseado na avaliação do risco associado ao comportamento de navios amarrados em zonas portuárias.Os riscos associados a navios amarrados decorrem de movimentos excessivos, quer no plano horizontal, quer no plano vertical. Estes movimentos podem condicionar as atividades portuárias, nomeadamente cargas e descargas, mas em casos extremos podem levar à ocorrência de situações de emergência, tais como rotura de cabos, rotura de cabeços de amarração ou até colisões com o cais. As consequências deste tipo de situações envolvem sempre grandes prejuízos materiais e por vezes humanos.O sistema SWAMS_ALERTA utiliza as medições e previsões de agitação marítima para a determinação dos seus efeitos em termos de movimentos nos seis graus de liberdade e forças nas amarras e defensas quando o navio se encontra estacionado no cais. Para tal, o sistema recorre a uma série de modelos numéricos, interligados entre si. A comparação destes valores com valores máximos admissíveis pré-estabelecidos permite a avaliação, em tempo real, de situações de emergência e a emissão de alertas dirigidos às entidades portuárias.O sistema é constituído por 4 módulos:I
