INVESTIGATION OF SEAWATER EXCHANGE RATE FOR COASTAL PROTECTION STRUCTURES

Abstract

Various types of coastal structures have been used as a measure to effectively block the incident high waves to control the damage behind the coast. In order to achieve the needs and specific purposes of residents, it is often constructed in a structure with strong closure, and in this case, water quality and low quality pollution may occur due to the inflow of contaminated water and congestion of seawater. In order to solve this problem, this study reviewed various kinds of countermeasures that induce seawater exchange inside and outside the facility using natural energy such as waves and tidal changes.
