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%.

Otimização da arquitetura computacional do sistema HIDRALERTA
A presente comunicação descreve o conjunto de procedimentos adotados para tornar maisfuncional, eficiente e fidedigno o sistema de previsão e alerta de galgamentos em zonascosteiras e portuárias - HIDRALERTA. Estes procedimentos incidiram essencialmente emdois módulos do sistema: o módulo de caraterização da agitação marítima e o módulo dosistema de alerta, que inclui a plataforma Web.O módulo da agitação marítima requer maior capacidade de processamento, e, por isso, foimigrado para o Cluster MEDUSA possibilitando a execução paralelizada dos vários modelosnuméricos de geração, propagação e deformação da agitação marítima em zonas costeirase portuárias. A execução paralelizada permite um aumento da resolução temporal dasprevisões do sistema sem comprometer a rapidez de processamento.A plataforma Web permite dois tipos distintos de visualização diária de resultados: imagensestáticas, que contêm resultados dos modelos numéricos, e um WebGIS, que visa umarápida, eficiente e detalhada análise das previsões do HIDRALERTA. Nesta plataforma foiainda criada uma ferramenta de validação, acessível ao utilizador, que compara os dados daboia ondógrafo da Praia da Vitória (mantida parcialmente através do projecto ESTRAMARMAC/3/C177) com os valores calculados pelo sistema, conferindo uma maior confiança aosresultados do HIDRALERTA. O sistema de alerta foi também desenvolvido de forma aenviar alertas via E-mail. Nos casos que o justifiquem, um alerta emitido automaticamentepelo HIDRALERTA é enviado às entidades competentes, informando-as, com a maiorantecipação possível, das zonas/atividades em risco.

Probability of failure of monopile foundations based on laboratory measurements
Monopile foundations are in the lead as the most common offshore substructure worldwide. Therefore, the study of their behaviour and the optimisation of their design represent important contributions, for the development of the offshore wind sector. In order to optimise the design process of monopiles in the marine environment, it is important to account for the uncertainties that can affect these structures, namely those relating to scour phenomena and the means of scour protection. Uncertainty relating to scour can be handled by means of statistical approaches. Probabilistic design methods may enable the optimisation of design procedures.This paper combines several results from physical modelling of scour development and a probabilistic model has been applied and extended to obtain probabilities of failure for the monopiles tested. This investigation will be used for comparison and calibration of the next phase of research, with a similar probabilistic approach being extended for waves and currents combined. The results presented are also used to provide an insight into future research concerning the failure of scour protection schemes. The relationship between safety factors and probabilities of failure of the monopiles is also presented.

Run-up on a rubble mound breakwater: comparison of empirical formulae and physical model results
The present study focuses on the comparison of measured wave run-up values obtained in physical model tests with those predicted by different empirical formulae. Tests were carried out in a flume for a cross-section of a rubble mound breakwater with an armour layer of tetrapods and rock, and a recurved wave return wall. The model represents the cross-section of the south breakwater of Praia da Vitória harbour (Azores, Portugal) that directly protects quay 12. Two water levels and several incident wave conditions were tested. Empirical runup formulae from Van der Meer & Stam (1992), Pullen et al. (2007) and Bonakdar & Etemad- Shahidi (2011) were applied for the tested conditions and comparisons were made with experimental values of the two percent wave run-up, R2% . Generally, the agreement between predictions and measurements was better for mean low water than for mean high water springs, with all formulae over predicting measurements for the latter.

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.

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
