Seminar: Coastal Engineering in the Pacific

Holmes 247 2540 Dole Street, Honolulu

David A. Smith, PhD, PE Senior Coastal Engineer, Sea Engineering, Inc., Honolulu, Hawaii *In-person (HOLM 247) & via zoom* Zoom link Meeting ID: 963 5962 3640 Passcode: OREseminar https://hawaii.zoom.us/j/96359623640 Join me as I reflect on my path from a new graduate to a senior coastal engineer. This presentation will explore how engineers contribute to solving complex problems at every stage of their careers—starting with well-defined tasks and growing into leadership roles on projects with no clear roadmap. I’ll share insights into the evolution of technical and professional responsibilities in the consulting engineering world, and wrap up with highlights from some

Seminar: Sea Engineering’s Specializations and Projects Throughout the Pacific

Bilger Hall 150 2545 McCarthy Mall, Honolulu

Chis Conger Vice President of Sea Engineering Director of Engineering Division at Sea Engineering Location Information **This seminar will be held both in person (Bilger Hall 150) and over Zoom** https://hawaii.zoom.us/j/95081858686 Meeting ID: 950 8185 8686 Passcode: OREseminar Sea Engineering, Inc. (SEI) was founded in 1973 by University of Hawai‘i graduate students to provide marine-related engineering, construction, and diving services locally and throughout the broader Pacific Basin. SEI, homebased in Hawai‘i, has 50 years of experience working on coastal, marine, and waterfront projects in the Hawaiian Islands, as well as Guam, Diego Garcia, and CNMI. Our core services include geophysical

Seminar: A Numerical Study of Effects of Perforation Layouts on Wave Energy Dissipation Caused by a Submerged Perforated Breakwater in Front of a Vertical Seawall

Bilger Hall 150 2545 McCarthy Mall, Honolulu

Brady Halvorson Ph.D. Student Department of Ocean and Resources Engineering University of Hawai’i at Mānoa Location Information **This seminar will be held both in person (Bilger Hall 150) and over Zoom** https://hawaii.zoom.us/j/95081858686 Meeting ID: 950 8185 8686 Passcode: OREseminar Perforated structures are a promising alternative to standard sea walls and breakwaters for dissipating wave energy and protecting coastlines. Perforated marine structures can effectively remove wave energy from ocean waves by the energy loss associated with the flow through the perforations in the structure. Understanding the factors that may affect the hydrodynamic characteristics of flow through a perforated plate is important
