Résumé : International audience
In this paper, shape optimization tools are applied to coastal engineering. A barred beach protection study is described, using a new type of water wave attenuator device, namely geotextile tube, to reduce the mobilization of sediments. A global optimization algorithm, able to pursue beyond local minima, is used to search for the optimum properties of the geotextile tube. The optimal configuration is then post-validated for generated currents.
