Abstract
The paper reports some recent advances in the mechanics and countermeasures of scour and internal erosion. It presents a concise review of the key issues on the tsunami/wave-seabed-structure interactions from geotechnical and hydrodynamic perspectives. I highlight here seepage erosion, effect of overflow and seepage coupling on scour of breakwaters, wave-induced liquefaction and scour protection around a monopile, internal erosion, cavity formation and collapse behind seawalls and quaywalls.
