This book provides an introductory text to prospective (graduate) port engineers and presents a wide variety of port subjects for practicing engineers. It covers almost all topics related to port engineering in a fundamental way, including dredging, marine aids to navigation, environmental issues, containers, liquid bulk, dry bulk, general cargo, multipurpose, roll-on\/roll-off (Ro-Ro), fishing, and ferry terminals. Discussions are targeted at a conceptual design level.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eOther features:\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAspects of port engineering are discussed, including shipping, maritime trade, environmental aspects (such as climate change), resilience of ports, nature-based solutions, and port management (such as security, equipment, slurry pumping, and so forth)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eIllustrates the design of port terminals\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDiscusses site selection for a new port, the factors to be considered, and ways to compare different potential port sites\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eExplores asset management and repair of marine structures\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eIncludes case studies from around the world, examples, and practical and user-friendly guidelines\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Rarewaves","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":56517636096374,"sku":"9781032131450","price":195.77,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0092\/7504\/8033\/files\/orig_31976665.jpg?v=1761290220","url":"https:\/\/www.rarewaves.com\/products\/9781032131450-fundamentals-of-port-engineering","provider":"Rarewaves.com","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
