Concept Study for Military Port Design Using Natural Processes

New concepts for port design using indigenous natural processes are formulated and proposed which will provide cost effective solutions to the problem of port design in the new world of shifting defense realities. The concepts proposed are: (1) building the ports structure with electrolytic mineral...
