New material on the latest trends in shipping technology, navigation techniques, and transportation procedures, or development, and economics makes Port engineering the essential state-of-the-art reference in the specialized yet vital field. The book's broad coverage is now greatly expanded with more than 120 new figures, tables, graphs, etc.,: new information on portal layout and site optimal dimensions of maritime fairways and shallow seas and sea and the latest advances in Breakwater, Mooring, and fendering design. This third edition also describes the most recent developments in dredging technology, including the environmental aspects of disposal of dredged material, Littoral drift and sedimentation problems are examined in detail to help engineers plan and maintain a port by dredging or bypassing. In addition this work relates Port engineering to coastal geomorphology-geology, geography, and geophysics-to provide a better understanding of the influence of wins, waves, and currents on Shoreline and coastal zone development. Because of the accelerated activity and offshore energy exploration, this new edition offers the latest research findings on ways statistics and methods for calculating current and wave forces on offshore structures".
