Call for Abstracts

On behalf of Engineers Australia, the ICCE2022 Local Organising Committee invites abstract submissions from prospective authors on conference themes or related topics for presentation at the 37th International Conference on Coastal Engineering.

Abstracts are invited in theory, measurement, analysis, modeling and practice, including, but not limited to, the following topics. Practical submissions detailing the design, construction and performance of case studies on coastal projects are also encouraged.

A Special note to Authors of accepted abstracts at the postponed ICCE2020 conference:
Due to the 2-year delay and virtual ‘vICCE’ that occurred in the interim, the Coastal Engineering Research Council and Sydney Local Organising Committee wish to advise that all abstracts submitted to ICCE2022 will undergo a new and independent peer-review process. Updated abstracts are welcomed.

Abstract submissions close on 6 May 2022.

Submission Guidelines

• Abstracts are limited to one page, and should conform to the template provided. For any questions please contact Patrick Lynett plynett@usc.edu
• An author cannot be listed as the first author on more than one paper and cannot present more than one paper at the Conference. Papers must be presented at the Conference in order to be included in the Proceedings to be published after the Conference.

Topics

Coastal Hydrodynamic Processes: Wave theories and wave transformation, wave observations, tides and tidal dynamics, nearshore currents, physical and numerical modelling

Coastal Sediment Processes & Morphology: Sediment transport processes, scouring, coastal erosion, coastal cliffs, dunes, coral coasts, shoreline dynamics and change.

Coastal Structures, Ports, Harbours and Waterways: Wave-structure-soil interactions, breakwaters, ports, marinas, offshore platforms, coastal defence structures, special structures, monitoring, physical modelling, planning, design, reliability based design, construction, performance, operation, optimisation, maintenance, waterway siltation and dredging.

Coastal Hazards and Risk: Climate change, tsunami, storm surge, freak waves, extreme events, sea level rise, flood risk management and strategies, assessment of coastal risks.

Coastal Management, Environment: Integrated coastal zone management, wetlands and estuaries, marine renewable energy, beach nourishment, nature-based solutions, sustainability of coastal environments, coastal pollution, recreation, water quality, environmental impacts and compensation.

Key Dates

Authors will be notified of the status of their submissions in July 2022. Accepted authors will receive instructions for preparing an in-depth (extended) abstract for publication. Abstracts will be available on the Conference app.

Abstract submissions close on 6 May 2022.
