Applied Ocean Wave Mechanics JEE306
Introduction
This unit covers the key elements and essential concepts of ocean wave mechanics that are relevant to the design and development of offshore and coastal structures. Additionally, the unit helps students in developing and applying appropriate computational methods relevant to engineering problems of wave mechanics. The unit provides the foundations for JEE359 Design of Floating Offshore Structures and JEE402 Design of Coastal Engineering Structures.

Note
Please check that your computer meets the minimum System Requirements if you are attending via Distance/Off-Campus.
Units are offered in attending mode unless otherwise indicated (that is attendance is required at the campus identified). A unit identified as offered by distance, that is there is no requirement for attendance, is identified with a nominal enrolment campus. A unit offered to both attending students and by distance from the same campus is identified as having both modes of study.
