Overview

Water transportation remains one of the most energy-efficient and economically viable modes of global mobility. However, rapid vessel growth, environmental pressures, climate change impacts, and increasing trade demand have placed unprecedented strain on coastal and inland navigation systems. Marine Coastal and Inland Water Transportation Systems presents a comprehensive and forward-thinking framework for designing, maintaining, and managing sustainable waterway infrastructure. The book integrates engineering principles, environmental stewardship, economic evaluation, and risk-based decision-making into a unified approach for modern maritime systems. Through technical analysis, case studies, and applied methodologies, the book examines: Sustainable navigation channel design and maintenance Risk assessment in restricted waterways Economic optimization of dredging operations Environmental impact mitigation and sediment management Vessel-channel interaction and maneuverability in shallow water Inland waterway hybrid transportation systems
