FIFTH CONFERENCE ON COASTAL ENGINEERING 



on 8-T>l September 19^U 



Sponsored by the University of Grenoble 



at 



Ecole National D'Electrotechnique Et D'Hydraulique 



U6 Avenue Felix - Vtallet 



Grenoble, France 



This series of conferences is one of the activities of the Council 

 on Wave Research of the Engineering Foundation. Four conferences have 

 been held to date - the first at Long Beach, California, in 1950, the 

 second at Houston, Texas, in 1951, the third in Cambridge, Massachusetts, 

 in 1952, and the fourth in Chicago, Illinois in 1953. The proceedings 

 of tiiese conferences have been published. The primary purpose of these 

 conferences has been to aid the engineer by summarizing the present 

 state of the art and science related to the design and planning of coastal 

 works. Although much remains to be done in the way of developing 

 reliable design methods, the series of papers presented at the con- 

 ferences represent a thorough -summary of coastal engineering as now 

 practiced. Although many papers to be given at the fifth conference 

 will pertain to the European Coast it is the aim and purpose to present 

 papers that present basic information for general application. In- 

 quiries regarding this conference, and requests for application forms, 

 should be directed to the above address or to the following:
