A STUDY OF PASSIVE FLOW ON NATO-GD SHIP MODEL AIRWAKE USING COMPUTATIONAL FLUID DYNAMICS
type: item
description: This study focuses on numerically analysing the passive flow control method for manipulating air wakes on the NATO-GD ship model using detached eddy simulation (DES). The numerical techniques are verified through comparison with experimental data obtained from the NATO-GD baseline. To develop the flow control model, the hanger base of the original NATO-GD ship model is altered by incorporating a curved roof edge. The findings indicate distinct performances in vortex structure on the flight deck between the two cases, along with variations in turbulent characteristics. Specifically, the results demonstrate that the curved roof edge directs flow more effectively towards the low- speed area (LSA) on the deck, leading to improved reduction of flow recirculation and enhanced recovery of streamwise velocity. How-ever, this modification also results in higher levels of turbulent kinetic energy (TKE) in the air wake.

type: item
description: Access to clean drinking water remains a global challenge, exacerbated by population growth, urbanization, and climate change. This issue is particularly critical in maritime environments, where ships, ports, and offshore facilities face limited access to freshwater resources. Atmospheric Water Generators (AWGs), which extract water from air humidity, offer a sustainable solution. Rising demand for AWGs in regions such as the Middle East and Asia Pacific highlights their importance in addressing water scarcity. The present study presents the development of an AWG prototype using the Vapor Compression Cycle (VCC), designed to enhance water production efficiency and minimize energy consumption. The system integrates a PCB and DHT-22 sensors to monitor temperature and humidity, with data collected via Arduino and displayed using LabVIEW. To ensure a fair comparison with similar AWG systems, Buckingham Pi Theorem was applied for dimensionless analysis, normalizing variables such as temperature, humidity, air velocity, surface area, and water collection rate. The performance of the developed prototype was systematically compared to other AWG systems from the literature, all evaluated under similar average environmental conditions of 22–24°C temperature and 60–63% relative humidity. Reported performance metrics from studies on AWG systems indicate water generation rates ranging between 0.95 and 1.78 L/hr, with energy consumption values of 0.75– 0.84 kWh/L. In contrast, the developed AWG prototype demonstrated a water generation rate of 2.1 L/hr with an energy consumption of 0.73 kWh/L, showing significantly improved performance. These results validate the efficiency of the improved design and demonstrate its superiority under equivalent conditions. The findings underscore the potential of the developed AWG prototype to advance AWG technology, providing a sustainable solution to water scarcity in maritime contexts while conserving energy and minimizing reliance on external…

ETHICAL DILEMMAS OF USING ARTIFICIAL INTELLIGENCE FOR LEADERSHIP IMPROVEMENT
type: item
description: Background: Artificial intelligence (AI) is not only a new way to approach technology, to revolutionize the industry, but also a way to change the relational system and especially to improve the leadership of organizations. Data Sources: A literature search was conducted through Google Scholar, Scopus, and Web of Science (2014-2024) using keyword combinations including: AI, leadership plus ethical dilemma, and in the WOS program the search was performed only in WEB of Science The official documents of decision-making structures at European or global level were also consulted. Results: The ethical analysis of the problems raised by the use of AI in the field of development of an organization is a useful approach for any organization, whether it is one in the field of business, industry, medico-social or education. Ethical dilemmas are related, on the one hand, to the introduction of AI in decision-making (which can lead to the perpetuation of prejudices depending on the data on which they have been trained), to elements related to the respect of the confidentiality of the data included in the analysis, but, on the other hand, to the replacement of human decision-making by that taken with the help of AI (the morality of the decisions taken, responsibility for the decisions taken) or by the integration of the principles of non-maleficence and beneficence in the decision-making activity, respectively by the ability versus inability to detect the correctness versus the incorrectness of some decisions. Conclusions: The research provides information on the ethical approach to the use of artificial intelligence in AI, with a focus on understanding the need to use AI responsibly and assumed and the impact of both positive and negative use of AI, being able to be a tool in understanding the potential of using AI in current practice, in understanding the priorities induced by the use of AI: responsibility, efficiency, success in the context of protecting team members and socie…

How to Consider Industrial Property and Patents When Using Artificial Intelligence for Creation
type: item
description: The integration of Artificial Intelligence (AI) in the creation of industrial property and patents has raised critical questions regarding intellectual property rights, ownership, and the legal frameworks that govern these domains. As AI technologies become increasingly sophisticated, they are capable of generating inventions that challenge traditional notions of inventorship and ownership. This paper delves into the implications of AI-generated inventions on industrial property, with a particular focus on the patentability criteria established by current legal systems. It examines the challenges associated with attributing inventorship to AI systems, as traditional legal frameworks typically recognize only human inventors. Furthermore, the discussion highlights the urgent need for updated legal frameworks that can adequately address the complexities introduced by AI in the innovation process. By analysing case studies and recent developments in patent law, this paper aims to provide insights into how policymakers and legal experts can navigate the evolving landscape of intellectual property in the AI age, ensuring that inventors' rights are protected while fostering innovation.

Enhancing Maritime Search and Rescue (SAR) Operations Using UAVBased Flight Control Systems: Opportunities, and Challenges
type: item
description: The number of maritime accidents has been generally in decline in recent years, but maritime incidents still pose an important threat to human life, with optimization of search strategies and efficient use of resources hence being a high priority. In this regard, this study employed a mixed-methods approach by carrying out a Python-based simulation in the modeling of UAV-supported SAR missions and semistructured interviews with professionals in the areas of maritime SAR and experts in drone technology. This study aims to explore how UAVs may enhance the effectiveness of maritime SAR by employing both quantitative simulations and qualitative insights from expert viewpoints. The research investigates the potential of UAVs in optimizing search patterns, detecting persons in water (PIW), and delivering life-saving equipment under various conditions. Besides the quantitative analysis through a Python-based simulation modeled UAV-supported SAR missions, semi-structured interviews provided practical insights into operational challenges. Many practitioners recognized the potential of UAVs for faster observations and interventions, but they expressed concerns about their vulnerability to bad weather conditions, regulatory restrictions, and also limited payload capacities. The interviewees mentioned the greater strength and weather resistance given to drones, improved sensorial advances like thermal imaging, Lidar, and further action in terms of algorithms within autonomous navigation. Again, participants stressed that availability is related to specialized training for this type of SAR team with high-performance UAV systems. These results have proved that UAVs indeed provide a quantifiable advantage under maritime SAR situations, precisely in terms of speed and area covered, real-time situational awareness. The significant hurdles will be overstepped before UAVs can be fully integrated into normal SAR operations. Better long-enduring drones, up-to-date sensors for further de…

AI AND BIG DATA AT SEA: THEIR POTENTIAL IMPACTS ON SEAFARERS
type: item
description: With the integration of Artificial Intelligence (AI), Big data, and advanced navigation systems, the shipping industry is revolutionizing in ways that offers advanced maritime safety and security, improvement of energy consumption, maintenance, and efficiency of voyages. This wave of technological advancement brings with it a sense of optimism. At the same time, however, it opens up questions about what these technologies mean in terms of the working conditions and Occupational Safety and Health of Seafarers (OSH). This research paper discusses the increased application of AI and Big Data in the maritime sector, and it explicitly explores their possible application to monitor and surveil seafarers at sea. The paper examines what the potential consequences of deploying such advanced technologies might be in order to oversee and regulate the work of seafarers within an environment where boundaries between work and private life are often blurred. It is in-depth research into the current application of AI in maritime operations with regard to tracking and surveillance, optimization, and safety, therefore giving a proper understanding of the subject. However, despite the fact that there is no documented evidence of AI and big data being used against seafarers, the authors have gone further to discuss how this could be possible, making use of the Voyage Data Recorder (VDR) as an example of collecting data onboard vessels. VDR can be taken as the closest existing technology to AI applied on board ships. Such a tool, as discussed by the authors, can monitor several features of a ship operating at sea: navigation, the performance of the machinery, and human activities. It is this possible use of information against the seafarers themselves in the case of accidents or any other incidents that occur at sea that scares them. Apart from being exciting, there are significant issues around privacy, ownership of data, and perhaps impacting on the rights and responsibilities of the …

CAN AI ADDRESS THE SHORTCOMINGS OF THE CURRENT PORT EMISSIONS INVENTORY PRACTICES?
type: item
description: The creation of air emission inventories (EIs) in seaports has proven to be a valuable method providing a quantitative basis to meet increasingly stringent regulations and ambitious emission reduction targets. These inventories are essential for implementing and monitoring necessary measures. However, despite their significance, EIs are often unpublished or not regularly updated, obscuring the ports' contributions to emissions. Key reasons for this include data security issues, accuracy problems, and the substantial effort required to obtain and analyze the necessary emission data. Recent advancements in artificial intelligence (AI) offer promising solutions to reduce this effort and enhance the accuracy of these inventories. Based on a systematic literature review of 13 relevant articles, this study examines the potentials and barriers of AI and machine learning (ML) techniques. The findings reveal the AI/ML techniques considered in the context of EIs, pinpoint the barriers that can be overcome using AI/ML, and highlight the improvements needed for the further application of these technologies. The proposed future research agenda aims to incorporate practical evidence from port authorities, providing a comprehensive understanding of how AI can be effectively leveraged for improving the accuracy and relevance of emission inventories.

EMISSION REDUCTION USING AMMONIA/DIESEL DUAL FUEL FOR MARINE DIESEL ENGINES IN GREEN PORT APPLICATION
type: item
description: The utilization of green energy can significantly reduce emissions generated in ports using diesel fuel in vehicles, machinery, and ships. Emission reduction strategies are constantly being researched to replace older engines and install zero-emission power systems through the investigation of cleaner trends that can be employed in ports and surrounding areas. The continuous development of international trade and the increasing number of ships at ports lead to the extensive development of ports which will result in the use of more diesel engines contributing to environmental pollution by their emissions. Ammonia has gained great attention for its use in ICEs leading to their decarbonization and the reduction of GHG emissions. It is a liquid energy source that can be stored and transported safely. This paper studies the effectiveness of using ammonia and hydrogen as clean fuels for marine dual fuel engines. A computational analysis using Aspen Plus software is carried out to investigate the combustion process as well as the resulting pollutants including GHGs. The results show that the suggested dual fuel methods reduce CO2 emissions by 59.68%, and SOx emissions by 60%.

ENHANCING MARITIME SAFETY: OPTIMIZING FAIRWAY DESIGN THROUGH MULTI-ARC CONFIGURATIONS
type: item
description: The growing parameters of ships entail the necessity for port infrastructure which depends mainly on the size of ships and various weather conditions. One of the major problems in marine traffic engineering is to determine the safe parameters of fairways, i.e., safe depth and width at the bottom in bends of the fairway. While examining the velocity component of bends, the helical flow formed by secondary currents was observed. A secondary current occurs due to imbalance between centrifugal forces and pressure gradient at surface. In other words, close to the inner bank and at channel bed, pressure gradient exceeds centrifugal forces and conveys water in transverse direction toward the inner bank. At free surface, centrifugal forces drive flow (secondary current) to the outer bank. The aim of this research is to replace fairway bends that have a single arc with multiple separate arcs to reduce the curvature effect of fairways on ships during manoeuvring. This is achieved by performing CFD methods for fairway bends, with a single arc shape and with multiple separate arcs, under different flow conditions. Multiple arcs will reduce the effect of helical flow with the objective of minimizing grounding risk, loss of steering, or ships collision.

A PARAMETRIC ANALYSIS TO INVESTIGATE THE SOIL-STRUCTURE INTERACTION ON QUAY WALLS USING FINITE ELEMENT MODELING
type: item
description: Structural strengthening is an effective and feasible approach for preserving the functionality of degraded structures safely and reliably while also upgrading their capacity to sustain extra loads. As a cost-effective and practical solution necessitates the development of methodologies that simulate the real conditions to assess the soil structure interaction, additional loads, and their impact on structures, as well as to evaluate the strengthening system properly. The overall aim of this research is to develop finite element models using PLAXIS 3D to investigate the influence of various material models on an existing quay wall with diverse soil profiles, along with a parametric analysis to evaluate the impact of extra loads. A case study in Port Said East Port, the diaphragm quay wall of the container terminal operated by Suez Canal Container Terminal (SCCT), which is located to the north of Egypt on the Mediterranean Sea, was chosen in this regard. For the purpose of verification, two case studies were chosen: the Deep-Sea quay wall at Rotterdam, which provides essential field results and a 3D PLAXIS finite element model, along with the diaphragm quay wall of the Port Said East Port container terminal, which provides 3D PLAXIS finite element models. Most comparisons between the author's models and the three referenced cases show a percent error of less than 10%, indicating an acceptable margin of error. A comparative study of two soil profiles employing two material models was conducted, revealing that the Mohr-Coulomb material model is more conservative than the Hardening Soil model, since it yields higher results. A parametric analysis was performed on the effects of increased crane loads and deepening in front of the quay wall, revealing that deepening has a greater influence than the increment of crane loads, especially for horizontal displacement.

A Comparative Analysis Between Wave and Solar Energy for Sustainability in Coastal zones; Case Study: Alexandria Port, Egypt
type: item
description: The growing impact of carbon emissions, including rising sea levels and extreme weather, underscores the need for sustainable energy solutions, especially in coastal areas. This study compares solar and wave energy in Alexandria, Egypt, evaluating their costs and environmental feasibility. Utilizing Alexandria’s high solar irradiance and promising wave energy potential, Solar Photovoltaic (PV) systems and Oscillating Water Column (OWC) wave energy systems are assessed. HOMER PRO software was used for solar modeling, while empirical formulas and MATLAB estimated wave energy production. Results show solar PV systems are more cost-effective, with a Levelized Cost of Energy (LCOE) of $0.01165/kWh and a CO₂ reduction of 26.3 million kg annually. In contrast, wave energy offers more consistent production and a larger environmental benefit (55 million kg CO₂ reduction per year), but with higher initial costs and an LCOE of $0.0472/kWh. The study concludes that while solar energy is more cost-effective, wave energy holds significant potential for long-term development in coastal zones like Alexandria.

INDUSTRIAL RELOCATION OF MANUFACTURING COMPANIES
type: item
description: The paper examines the phenomenon of industrial relocation, exploring its theoretical framework and presenting a case study on Romanian manufacturing companies. The study reveals a limited interest in relocation among these companies, both currently and over the past five years, indicating a stable and favorable business environment in Romania. The research identified cost optimization as a primary reason for relocation. As key factors for relocation, reputational risk and sustainability strategies were also identified. The case study used qualitative methodology and the interview method and involved 12 prominent Romanian manufacturing companies to assess their relocation behavior. The results revealed that cost reduction remains the most significant motivator. However, the fear of reputational damage and a strong commitment to sustainability could outweigh the potential benefits of relocating abroad. This suggests a shift towards a more holistic approach to strategic decision-making that takes into consideration more than financial considerations. The paper ends by highlighting the complex interplay of cost, reputation, and sustainability in shaping relocation decisions for Romanian companies, emphasizing the increasing importance of responsible business practices in the globalized economy.

INTEGRATING SIMULATION AND OPTIMIZATION FOR SUSTAINABILITY ASSESSMENT IN COMPLEX SUPPLY CHAINS: A UNIFIED FRAMEWORK WITH AI
type: item
description: The increasing complexity of global supply chains and the rising emphasis on sustainability require innovative methodologies to assess and optimize operational performance. This paper introduces a unified framework integrating simulation, optimization, and artificial intelligence (AI) to evaluate and enhance the sustainability of complex supply chains. The framework leverages AnyLogistiX’s simulation (SIM) and optimization (OPT) modules to model existing supply chain configurations, calculate sustainability indices, and identify improvements through AI-generated scenarios. The proposed approach begins with a detailed examination of the current state of supply chains, emphasizing the predominance of road transport and centralized logistics. It then integrates the sustainability index, derived from a previous study, as a key metric for performance evaluation. AI’s capabilities are harnessed to generate innovative scenarios that address sustainability challenges, such as reducing carbon emissions, traffic congestion, and dependency on centralized hubs. This study applies the framework to a European distribution supply chain, comparing an AS-IS scenario with an AI-generated TO-BE configuration. The TO-BE scenario features the integration of ro-ro shipping and intelligent replenishment systems, showcasing significant improvements in sustainability metrics. The comparative analysis underscores the transformative potential of AI-driven solutions in achieving sustainable supply chain operations.

OPTIMIZING THE DRAFT OF A QUAY WALL TO THE ANCHOR LENGTH RATIO USING FINITE ELEMENT NUMERICAL MODEL
type: item
description: This research studied the effect of varying the distance between the front wall and the back anchor of a quay wall located in Abu Qir, Alexandria, Egypt. The quay wall was built to serve as a multipurpose terminal, the front wall is a combined wall system (tubular steel pipes connected by intermediate sheet piles) and the back (deep) anchor is a barrette pile. Researchers often study quay wall optimization and how various structural and operational changes could affect an existing quay wall’ s performance. However, the relation between a quay wall’s draft and the back anchor length using pile anchors was not studied previously. The added value of this research is providing several ratios between the quay wall draft and the back anchor length. The analysis was performed by varying the distance of the barrette piles, bringing them closer to and further apart from the front wall to conclude how this variation affects the quay wall elements. The numerical model was calibrated and verified using previous numerical models in two separate locations with different structure systems prior to conducting this research. The analysis was performed by conducting a three-dimensional numerical model using PLAXIS 3D V21 which is a finite element analysis software that models soil/structure interface. The results revealed that as the distance between the front wall and the back anchor increases, the moment increases on the combined wall while decreasing on the barrette, meanwhile, the front wall deflection decreases. The decrease in deflection is limited by the at rest and active plane of failures. It was concluded that the decrease in the front wall’s deflection becomes minimal after a draft to anchor length (d/L) ratio of 0.71 and the effect varying the d/L ratio has an immensely greater effect on the back anchor than on the front wall.

IMPROVING THE ENERGY EFFICIENCY OF PORT FACILITIES AND THEIR SUSTAINABLE DEVELOPMENT USING SOLAR ENERGY: EVIDENCE FROM ROMANIA
type: item
description: The purpose of this paper is to find solutions for improving the energy efficiency of port facilities and operations to reduce carbon footprint and achieve sustainable development. Ports are important gateways for international commerce, and they are a vital part of the global transportation network. However, there is a notable deficiency in terms of improving energy efficiency and integrating renewable energy into port facilities and operations. It is found that port authorities in the maritime domain face major challenges in reducing electricity consumption and carbon footprint by supporting increased resilience and energy efficiency. This study provides solutions for port authorities regarding the implementation of solutions to increase the energy efficiency of port buildings. This paper aims to summarize the application of EDGE platform to identify different solutions using photovoltaic panels and different measures that were simulated with the aim of improving the energy efficiency of the port facilities. The data and model used targeted the port of Constanta in Romania. The use of solar energy as a renewable energy source for the port of Constanta is based on the location of this facility in an area with high solar radiation. The research results indicate a payback of the investment from the revenues generated from the sale of energy produced by the PV plant in less than 9 years and a carbon footprint reduction of 197.2 tCO2 /year. The use of batteries for electrical energy storage contributes significantly to a better integration of renewable sources in port facilities and operations. The research results show that there is great potential for ports to increase the energy efficiency of their facilities and operations, offering such future research opportunities.

type: item
description: This paper explores the transformative role of Artificial Intelligence (AI) in port planning, focusing on its integration with Digital Twin technologies to enhance decision-making processes. From the perspective of a Port Authority, the study highlights AI’s capacity to improve data integration, harmonization, and predictive analytics, addressing challenges related to the heterogeneity of datasets across institutional and territorial contexts. AI enables the transition from fragmented data to a coherent, standardized knowledge framework, facilitating scenario analysis and strategic planning, which are essential for effective port governance. AI supports infrastructure investments, operational resilience, and sustainable development by optimizing connectivity, forecasting cargo flows, and improving intermodal logistics. Additionally, AI enhances simulations for long-term resilience planning, particularly in response to climate change and evolving trade dynamics. The paper also examines AI’s role in aligning port planning with European-level platforms such as TEN-TEC, the Ocean Digital Twin, and the ESPON program. These frameworks provide essential tools for evidence- based policymaking and territorial cohesion, reinforcing the integration of AI-driven spatial analysis into strategic port planning. By leveraging AI, Port Authorities can transition from reactive governance to proactive, data-driven decision-making, ensuring efficiency, competitiveness, and resilience in modern port management.

description: Ports are critical hubs for global trade, and the complex environments they encompass present unique fire hazards due to the presence of flammable materials, large machinery, and congested spaces. Effective firefighting preparedness among port workers is essential to ensure rapid response to emergencies and minimize damage. Traditional firefighting training methods, while valuable, often come with limitations such as safety concerns, high costs, and limited scenario variety. The fire safety skills training content is too large and complex, due to many problems in the actual training which requires varies and integrated training techniques such as simulation training systems. Virtual seaport firefighting training system based on virtual reality (VR) which plays is an important role in building capacities and enhancing port-workers skills . This study investigates the impact of virtual reality (VR) firefighting simulations on enhancing the firefighting capabilities of port workers. VR technology provides an immersive, risk-free environment where workers can experience realistic fire scenarios tailored to the specific challenges of port environments. These simulations offer dynamic training modules that replicate various fire hazards— such as fuel spills, container fires, and shipboard emergencies—allowing port workers to practice their response strategies, decision-making, and teamwork under pressure. The research examines how VR simulations improve key firefighting skills such as hazard recognition, risk assessment, and the effective use of firefighting equipment. By providing frequent and varied training opportunities without the logistical challenges of traditional methods, VR simulations have shown to significantly enhance port workers' readiness for emergency situations. Additionally, the study highlights the benefits of cost efficiency, safety, and scalability of VR-based training. The findings demonstrate that VR firefighting simulations are a powerful tool for…

PORT INDUSTRY PERCEPTION ON THE USE OF ARTIFICIAL INTELLIGENCE. THE CASE OF GREEK PORTS
type: item
description: The port industry is considered a latecomer in the Artificial Intelligence era, among others, due to the nature of port operations, the inner ort environment characteristics, the numerous players operating the port area, etc. Despite that, several actions towards adopting AI solutions in the port industry have been taken in the last few years, seeing as the next step (or the complimentary step) following port and terminal automation. AI can provide solutions and increase the efficiency of port processes, leading to reduced costs, better optimization of port operations, decreased emissions, etc., which can increase port users' satisfaction. On the other hand, AI comes with a price. Significant investments are needed to adopt AI solutions in port operations, which might prevent medium- and small-size ports from moving fast in the AI era. Also, there are significant challenges for ports related to the potential scarcity of qualified personnel and the need for port workforce transformation. Leading ports such as Rotterdam, Hamburg, and Singapore have adopted AI solutions as part of their smart-port strategy, but the applications of AI in ports are still limited. The paper tries to shed light on the issues affecting the potential of AI in the port industry by examining the perceptions of ports regarding the expectations, challenges, and pros and cons of AI in ports. Towards this, the paper proceeds with field research using a structured questionnaire in the major Greek ports operating as Societe Anonymes. The research results will provide valuable insights regarding the lack of AI adoption by the port industry that can be used to form relevant strategies and policies that will tackle the still low penetration of AI in ports.

AI-DRIVEN OPTIMIZATION OF HYDROGEN AND METHANE FUEL STRATEGIES FOR SUSTAINABLE MARITIME DECARBONIZATION
type: item
description: This study investigates the potential of integrating artificial intelligence (AI) with experimental analysis to optimize fuel mixtures in internal combustion engines for green port applications. By evaluating the efficiency and emission reduction capabilities of hydrogen-oxygen (HHO) gas and methane as alternative fuels, the research explores a dual-fuel conversion approach for conventional internal combustion engines. The AI- driven methodology employs Random Forest Regression (RFR) to analyze experimental data and determine the most efficient fuel mixture settings. The results indicate that NaOH at a 10% concentration achieves maximum fuel savings, while KOH at 12% concentration provides the best COx reduction. Methane injection demonstrates moderate fuel savings and emission reductions, highlighting its viability as an alternative fuel. The AI optimization process determined the optimal fuel mixture settings, enhancing efficiency, reducing emissions, and accelerating the transition to cleaner maritime energy solutions. These findings reinforce the effectiveness of AI-based optimization in advancing sustainable fuel strategies and promoting cleaner energy solutions for port operations and energy management.

AN INTEGRATED APPROACH TO ASSESS LEE SIDE EROSION IN RUBBLE MOUND GROIN SYSTEMS: A CASE STUDY
type: item
description: Coastal erosion along Egypt's Northern Mediterranean coast presents a persistent challenge, particularly near the Kitchener Drainage, where human activities, such as infrastructure development and agriculture, have intensified shoreline retreat. Groynes have been widely used to stabilize the coastline by trapping sediment on the updrift side. However, their application has induced significant downdrift erosion, leading to sediment depletion, beach narrowing, and alterations in the shoreline profile. This study aims to assess the long term effects of groyne construction in the Baltim region between 2007 and 2020, with a focus on shoreline evolution and downdrift erosion. Numerical modeling was conducted using the one-line model LITPACK, incorporating 31 years of wave data (1993–2023) from the Copernicus Marine Service and bathymetric surveys performed by Archimarine in 2020. Historical shoreline positions were derived from satellite imagery and field measurements to evaluate morphological changes. A brief discussion on mitigation measures and future studies is mentioned. The LITPACK one line model successfully simulated shoreline evolution, capturing 20m per year erosion rates east of Kitchener Drainage from 2007 to 2013, with model standard deviation of 7m. The model also accounted for the 16 groynes constructed in 2020, where maximum downdrift erosion reached 195 meters, with 100,000 m³/year of sediment loss near the final groyne. The modeling results confirm that continued groyne extensions have not fully mitigated erosion but have shifted the problem further eastward.

BEHAVIOR OF FOOTING GROUP RESTING ON COLLAPSIBLE SOIL BASED ON EXPERIMENTAL AND NUMERICAL STUDY
type: item
description: This study deals with identifying the behavior of contiguous square footing groups subjected to rainfall water. A variety of parameters were represented in order to study the effect of these parameters on the behavior of the footing group. The tests were conducted in a wide tank with collapsible soil and models of square footing groups. Using the experimental model to investigate the collapse settlement due to the infiltration of rainfall water through collapsible soil beneath contiguous square footing. In addition, the distribution of water content and the depth of wetting were measured. Moreover, numerical models were carried out by PLAXIS 3D V21 to simulate experimental models. From the test results, it was noticed that increasing the number of footings in a group causes a decrease in settlement.
