HIGHWAVE is an interdisciplinary project at the frontiers of coastal and ocean engineering...
Waves, an infinite source of energy for the humanity
and questions for scientists...
Why do waves break?
How do they dissipate energy?
...and why is this important?
Predicting the onset of breaking of water waves...
to improve wave breaking physics, sea state and ocean weather forecasting models.
in the west of Ireland, storms in the winter of 2013–2014 transported boulders inland distances up to 222 m.
sometime at elevations up to 29 m above high water...
...storm-wave energies on coasts remains to be fully understood...
Quantifying coastal boulders deposits dynamics helps us understand the transmission of wave energies inshore during high-energy storm events.
HIGHWAVE KICK OFF IN UCD
A presentation was held at the University Club, on the Belfield Campus of University College Dublin, (adjacent to the O’Reilly Hall Building, by the lake), on Wednesday October 2nd, 2019 to present Project Highwave, industry, private and public sector partners attended the event to meet the men and women of the wave group...
