Supplementary Notes 16. Abstract In an effort to promote the use of increasing stockpiles of waste tires and a growing demand for adequate backfill material in highway construction, NMDOT has embarked on a move to use compressed tire-bales as a means to reduce cost of construction and to recycle used tires which would otherwise occupy much larger space in landfills or be improperly disposed. Compressing the tires into bales has prompted unique environmental, technical, and economic opportunities. This is due to the significant volume reduction obtained when using tire-bales (approximately 100 auto tires with a volume of 20 cubic yards can be compressed to 2 cubic yard blocks, i.e. a tenfold reduction in landfill space).

  • Chapter 103 the Core-Loc: Optimized Concrete Armor
    CHAPTER 103 THE CORE-LOC: OPTIMIZED CONCRETE ARMOR Jeffrey A. Melby, A.M. ASCE and George F. Turk1 ABSTRACT: This paper outlines the development and initial testing of a new optimized armor shape, called CORE-LOC, that balances and optimizes engineering performance features such as hydraulic stability, strength, and layer porosity. The new shape has significantly reduced design stresses over many existing shapes, yet has superior interlocking and therefore greater stability. The unit has internal maximum tensile stress levels of approximately half that of dolosse and, therefore, should not need reinforcement. For over 1000 flume tests, the core-loc has demonstrated two-dimensional no-damage stability numbers over 7 and Hudson stability coefficients over 250. In nearly all tests, the core-loc layer could not be damaged up to the wave height-period capacities of the flumes. A site-specific three-dimensional stability test of the proposed Noyo, California, offshore breakwater showed a stable no-damage stability number of 2.7 for Hs or a Hudson stability coefficient of 13 when the core-loc armor layer was exposed to repeated attack of a very severe design-level storm. The unit has been designed to be used alone or as a repair unit for dolosse. Core-loc-repaired dolos model slopes showed improved stability over the original dolos slopes. Finally, through reduced volumes, the core-loc layer is substantially more economical than all other commonly-used randomly-placed armor.

  • 1 Single-Layer Breakwater Armouring: Feedback on The
    SINGLE-LAYER BREAKWATER ARMOURING: FEEDBACK ON THE ACCROPODE™ TECHNOLOGY FROM SITE EXPERIENCE GIRAUDEL Cyril1, GARCIA Nicolas2, LEDOUX Sébastien3 The single-layer technique appeared at the beginning of the 1980s, with the ACCROPODE™ unit, and is thus entering its third decade. At the time, this solution was a real innovation, reducing the amount of concrete and steepening armour facing slopes, hence reducing the volume of materials required. After three decades in use and more than 200 projects to date, it was important to summarize the lessons learned during this period and to inspect (above and below water) some of these structures in order to assess their behaviour and particularly to confirm the validity of the unit placing rules. In addition to the aspects related to armour stability, the focus has been given to the colonization by marine life of the structures, including the bedding layers, toe berms, underlayer, armour units. The purpose of this paper is to share the experience gained throughout the inspections undertaken since 2010 on structures built more than 10 years ago. A large panel of structures has been inspected, of different ages and at various locations worldwide. Keywords: rubble-mound breakwater; single-layer armouring; ACCROPODE™ units; biodiversity INTRODUCTION The ACCROPODE™ armour unit, well known today, is a plain concrete unit designed to protect the breakwaters, in aiming to reducing considerably the use of material while implementing steeper slopes and a single layer of concrete units (Figure 1). Invented in 1981 thanks to the bases and knowledge acquired with the Tetrapod invented by the same engineering company in 1953, the technology is still currently used and more than 200 applications have been built worldwide.

  • Coastal Management Software to Support the Decision-Makers to Mitigate Coastal Erosion
    Journal of Marine Science and Engineering Article Coastal Management Software to Support the Decision-Makers to Mitigate Coastal Erosion Carlos Coelho * , Pedro Narra, Bárbara Marinho and Márcia Lima RISCO & Civil Engineering Department, Aveiro University, Campus Universitário de Santiago, 3810-193 Aveiro, Portugal; [email protected] (P.N.); [email protected] (B.M.); [email protected] (M.L.) * Correspondence: [email protected] Received: 4 December 2019; Accepted: 8 January 2020; Published: 11 January 2020 Abstract: There are no sequential and integrated approaches that include the steps needed to perform an adequate management and planning of the coastal zones to mitigate coastal erosion problems and climate change effects. Important numerical model packs are available for users, but often looking deeply to the physical processes, demanding big computational efforts and focusing on specific problems. Thus, it is important to provide adequate tools to the decision-makers, which can be easily interpreted by populations, promoting discussions of optimal intervention scenarios in medium to long-term horizons. COMASO (coastal management software) intends to fill this gap, presenting a group of tools that can be applied in standalone mode, or in a sequential order. The first tool should map the coastal erosion vulnerability and risk, also including the climate change effects, defining a hierarchy of priorities where coastal defense interventions should be performed, or limiting/constraining some land uses or activities. In the locations identified as priorities, a more detailed analysis should consider the application of shoreline and cross-shore evolution models (second tool), allowing discussing intervention scenarios, in medium to long-term horizons. After the defined scenarios, the design of the intervention should be discussed, both in case of being a hard coastal structure or an artificial nourishment (third type of tools).

It discusses the construction and operation of the multi-tubular floating sea wave damper that has been developed at the Maritime University of Szczecin by Professor Bolesław Ku´zniewski.This paper presents the results of the research project aimed at creating and examining a prototype of the device. The research aimed to confirm the two hypotheses: “the largest damping force should occur when the damping units are placed at an optimal distance equal to half the length of the wave to be damped” and “a compensation of the horizontal forces caused by the rippling of water should occur in the damping device”. Simulation studies of the behaviour of the device’s buoyancy elements when floating on waves were performed using the ANSYS AQWAWB and AQWA software. The buoyancy components were modelled as TUBE elements with a diameter of 0.11 m and a length of 1.5 m and as triangular and square surface elements. The results of the experimental research and the computer simulation of the operation of the prototype device have also been presented.

Several empirical formulas have been proposed so far to predict reflection coefficient from rubble mound breakwaters and smooth slopes. The aim of this study is to investigate wave reflection from a rubble mound structure placed in front of a vertical concrete seawall. Several experimental tests were performed on a two-dimensional wave flume by reproducing on a rubble mound structure with a steep single primary layer armored with a novel artificial unit. A new approach for the prediction of the reflection coefficient based on dimensional analysis is also proposed, Citation: Pratola, L.; Rinaldi, A.; and a new empirical equation is derived.
