The movement of sedimentary matter along the coastal regions of the land has always been a problem in coastal and harbour engineering. Erosion and accretion of the shore and the sea bottom and the silt charge from the rivers discharging into the sea contribute the necessary sediment that moves along the coast.

The first data on the scale of the lateral movement of the sessile in the water column are obtained. It is established that the scale of the lateral movement of suspended matter in the coastal regions is 50-210 times greater than the vertical flow of matter to the bottom.

Navigating through three distinct sites of knowledge ‐ the seventeenth-century treatise on Malabar’s plants, Hortus Malabaricus; historical herbaria; and protected areas of remote forests and coastal regions of Kerala ‐ the project will stimulate innovative modes of drawing through considerations relating to the collection and preservation of rare plants. Generating a distinctive body of artworks at world-leading plant science research facilities and in the bio-diverse South Indian rainforest, the research asks: can drawing represent the vulnerabilities and resilience of rare plants, not through illustration and gathering information by creating marks on a substrate, but as a material phenomenon that can generate new knowledge?

Corrosion of reinforcement is an important durability concern for the structures exposed to coastal regions. Since corrosion of reinforcement involves long periods of time, impressed current technique is usually used to accelerate the corrosion of reinforcement in laboratories. Characterization of impressed current technique was the main focus of this research,which involved determination of optimum chloride content and minimum immersion time of specimens for which the application of Faraday’s law could be efficient. To obtain optimum chloride content, the electrolytes in the corrosion cell were prepared similar to that of concrete pore solutions. Concrete prisms of 200 mm by 200 mm by 300 mm were used to determine the minimum immersion time for saturation. It was found that the optimum chloride content was 35 gm/L and the minimum immersion time for saturation was 140 hours. Accounting the results, a modified expression based on Faraday’s law was proposed to calculate weight loss due to corrosion. Journal of Engineering Science 11(1), 2020, 93-99
