Ocean Engineering ( OED )

The research at Ocean Engineering Division (OED) focuses on the wave characteristics of North Indian Ocean, wave-structure interaction, resource assessment of wave power, surfzone dynamics, sediment transport & coastal morphology. The aim of the investigation is to understand the coastal processes influencing the coastal morphological changes along the Indian coast.

Evaluation of design parameters for coastal & offshore structures, numerical modelling of coastal processes, design of submarine pipelines, structural analysis & design of coastal structures, identification of location of intake structures, marine outfall, effluent/dredge disposal sites and Environmental Impact Assessment of coastal areas due to the development of industries along the coastline are the works carried out by Ocean Engineering Division for different agencies.
