Coastal Modelling

Accuracy and Reliability

Our team of coastal modelling experts includes highly qualified, experienced modellers and engineers who analyse and simulate various coastal processes and phenomena. We use advanced numerical modelling techniques to study the effects of waves, currents, tides, storms, sediment transport, erosion, accretion, and climate change on the coastal environment.

Future insights using cutting-edge tools

Consequently, you can expect accurate and reliable predictions of your project site’s metocean, hydrodynamic and morphological conditions and the potential impacts and risks of your coastal development or intervention.

Our cutting-edge software tools, such as MIKE, Optimoor, and SBEACH, allow us to conduct numerical modelling studies, wave tranquillity studies, mooring analysis, and other optimisation schemes for marinas and port development projects.

Accuracy with site-specific models

We can also simulate your project site’s hydrodynamic and morphological conditions by setting up site-specific local models, thereby assessing the potential impacts and risks of your coastal development or intervention. Our in-house regional models enable us to get reliable offshore metocean inputs for the local models. At the same time, we can conduct numerical modelling experiments to test and optimise the design and performance of your coastal structures and schemes.

Comprehensive, collaborative solutions

We have the expertise to integrate numerical modelling with other disciplines, such as geotechnical, structural, and environmental engineering. This approach enables us to deliver comprehensive, holistic solutions for your coastal and marine project requirements. We can assist with feasibility studies, design optimisation, master planning assistance, impact assessment, risk analysis, monitoring, and managing your coastal/marine project.

Coastal Resilience for Climate Change

Leveraging our extensive experience and expertise in coastal engineering and management, we can support coastal resilience and adaptation planning to address coastal hazards and the impacts of climate change. We tailor our modelling reports to address specific project compliances and client requirements. The reports serve as a support and guidance document for your project’s technical and non-technical stakeholders. As a specialised team, we are committed to providing high-quality, cost-effective modelling services that meet your project goals and objectives.

Comprehensive Modelling Services

We offer a full range of modelling services for the marine and coastal engineering sectors, including Wave Transformation Modelling to analyse wave behaviour near shores and Hydrodynamic Modelling for simulating water movements and interactions. Wave Tranquillity Modelling assesses wave impacts on harbours and marinas, while Sediment Transport Modelling looks at sediment dynamics. Shoreline Evolution Studies predict coastal changes, and Beach Stability Assessment evaluates beach resilience.

Our Flushing Studies examine water renewal in aquatic environments, and both Sediment Plume and Brine Dispersion Modelling analyse the spread of sediments and saline discharges. Mooring Analysis ensures vessel stability, Oil Spill Modelling aids in spill response strategies, and Cyclonic and tsunami modelling supports disaster risk management. Additionally, Environmental Compliance Studies help projects meet regulatory standards. These services collectively support informed decision-making for coastal and marine projects.
