Mechanics of Wave-Seabed-Structure Interactions

Dong-Sheng Jeng is a Professor at the Griffith School of Engineering, Queensland. His main research interests include coastal and ocean modelling, offshore geotechnics, and wave-seabed-structure interactions around marine infrastructure, which he has been studying for over twenty years. Alongside his research, he has authored or co-authored over 250 journal articles, and is an associate editor for a number of journals in the offshore engineering field.
