Coastal and Ocean Engineering Lab
Machine-translated · View original
The lab studies coastal areas and the ocean, aiming for coexistence between the sea and human society.

AboutAbout the lab
Toward coexistence and harmony between the sea and people
The Coastal and Ocean Engineering Lab conducts research aimed at building hard and soft systems that achieve coexistence and harmony between human society and coastal areas and the ocean.
Focusing on three themes, the environment, disaster prevention, and cold regions, the lab works to understand and apply knowledge of the physical and biological environments from land to sea.
The faculty members' specialties include coastal engineering, turbulence engineering, computational fluid dynamics, meteorology over the sea, and ocean energy.
Key terms
- Coastal engineering
- A field of engineering that studies waves, tidal currents, and changes in sandy beaches to consider how to protect and make use of coasts
- Turbulence
- Flow in which eddies mix together and change irregularly; it appears, for example, inside breaking waves
- Computational fluid dynamics
- A method of reproducing the flow of water or air by solving equations on a computer
