Marine Coastal and Water Pollutions: Oil Spill Studies

Identifying efficient solutions to protect coastal regions frommarine pollution requires expertise from a range of specialties andstrategic approaches. This book gathers information on the impactof oil spills at a coastal level from different experts'points of view, identifying synergies between domains such asmathematics, numerical modeling, mechanics, biology, economics andlaw.

The collaborative research presented here is based on the 4thInternational Workshop on Anti-Pollution and Marine Coastal WaterPollution, held in La Rochelle, France at the Engineering SchoolEIGSI, in April 2012. The areas addressed include: materials andstructures (fluid-structure and capture interaction, cable andmembrane equations, optimization); coastal hydrodynamics(computational fluid dynamics, numerical analysis of shallow waterequations, analytical and numerical derivatives); biologicalimpacts (biology, multivariate analysis, indicators); and economicsand law (compensation costs, insurance coverage, coastalvulnerability).
