The project is funded by the European Union through the NextGenerationEU call for proposals.<\/p>\n<p>The project is led by the <em>Laboratorio de Ingenier\u00eda Mar\u00edtima<\/em> (LIM) \/ Maritime Engineering Laboratory, a research centre linked to the Barcelona School of Civil Engineering (part of the Polytechnic University of Catalonia, UPC), with the University of Cantabria (IHCantabria), the Port Authority of Bilbao and AZTI as project partners. EPhysLab of the University of Vigo and the State Ports Authority are also involved as collaborators, with a view to incorporating the results of the project into the Spanish port system.<\/p>\n<p>PI-BREAK addresses the development of predictive maintenance applicable to breakwaters and other coastal structures, with special attention to their ultimate and serviceability limit states (resistant and functional design). Drawing on artificial intelligence, PI-BREAK will combine data and results obtained from multiple sources on different climate scenarios, linking short- to long-term scales (i.e. from storm events to climate change projections), together with a catalogue of sequenced maintenance interventions to develop adaptive solutions (adaptation through maintenance) for critical infrastructures such as breakwaters. Thus, the project aims to combine the results of numerical simulations, field measurements and experimental data, in both 2D and 3D and taking into account both short and long term scenarios, in order to develop a list of conservation and maintenance actions, together with their respective costs and approaches to investment, to develop adaptation protocols that will enable the sustainability of port and coastal structures, identifying their points of no return. This is an aspect considered of considerable importance by the Port Authority of Bilbao to ensure optimum efficiency in the conservation and maintenance of port infrastructure.<\/p>\n<p><\/div><div class=\"one_half column-last bbcol\"><\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_47251\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-47251\" style=\"width: 1200px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-47251 size-full\" title=\"Breakwater\" src=\"https:\/\/www.bilbaoport.eus\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/03\/pibreak.jpg\" alt=\"Breakwater\" width=\"1200\" height=\"900\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.bilbaoport.eus\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/03\/pibreak.jpg 1200w, https:\/\/www.bilbaoport.eus\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/03\/pibreak-535x401.jpg 535w, https:\/\/www.bilbaoport.eus\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/03\/pibreak-150x113.jpg 150w, https:\/\/www.bilbaoport.eus\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/03\/pibreak-250x188.jpg 250w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1200px) 100vw, 1200px\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-47251\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Breakwater<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>PI-BREAK will focus on the Punta Lucero breakwater in the Port of Bilbao.

Predictive maintenance will reduce risks in operational and survival conditions, contributing to the reduction of the final risk of infrastructures, to the efficiency of port operation, to the reduction of accumulated costs and the environmental footprint and to the well-being of the coastal populations that depend on port systems.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-47267 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/www.bilbaoport.eus\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/03\/laboratori.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"283\" height=\"107\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.bilbaoport.eus\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/03\/laboratori.jpg 283w, https:\/\/www.bilbaoport.eus\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/03\/laboratori-150x57.jpg 150w, https:\/\/www.bilbaoport.eus\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/03\/laboratori-250x95.jpg 250w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 283px) 100vw, 283px\" \/><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-47273 size-thumbnail\" src=\"https:\/\/www.bilbaoport.eus\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/03\/ihcantabria.jpg-150x58.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"150\" height=\"58\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.bilbaoport.eus\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/03\/ihcantabria.jpg-150x58.png 150w, https:\/\/www.bilbaoport.eus\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/03\/ihcantabria.jpg-535x206.png 535w, https:\/\/www.bilbaoport.eus\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/03\/ihcantabria.jpg-1200x463.png 1200w, https:\/\/www.bilbaoport.eus\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/03\/ihcantabria.jpg-1536x592.png 1536w, https:\/\/www.bilbaoport.eus\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/03\/ihcantabria.jpg-2048x790.png 2048w, https:\/\/www.bilbaoport.eus\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/03\/ihcantabria.jpg-250x96.png 250w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 150px) 100vw, 150px\" \/><\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-47277 size-thumbnail\" src=\"https:\/\/www.bilbaoport.eus\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/03\/azti-150x90.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"150\" height=\"90\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.bilbaoport.eus\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/03\/azti-150x90.jpg 150w, https:\/\/www.bilbaoport.eus\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/03\/azti.jpg 243w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 150px) 100vw, 150px\" \/><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-47280 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/www.bilbaoport.eus\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/03\/bilbaoport.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"121\" height=\"71\" \/><\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-medium wp-image-47258\" src=\"https:\/\/www.bilbaoport.eus\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/03\/micin-financiadoUEnextgeneration-prtr-aei-1-535x125.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"535\" height=\"125\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.bilbaoport.eus\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/03\/micin-financiadoUEnextgeneration-prtr-aei-1-535x125.jpg 535w, https:\/\/www.bilbaoport.eus\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/03\/micin-financiadoUEnextgeneration-prtr-aei-1-150x35.jpg 150w, https:\/\/www.bilbaoport.eus\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/03\/micin-financiadoUEnextgeneration-prtr-aei-1-250x58.jpg 250w, https:\/\/www.bilbaoport.eus\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/03\/micin-financiadoUEnextgeneration-prtr-aei-1.jpg 1200w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 535px) 100vw, 535px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><\/div><div class=\"clear\"><\/div><\/p>\n <div class=\"hide-for-small page-options-container hide-for-print\"> <hr class=\"page-options\"\/> <ul class=\"inline right page-options\"><li><a class=\"bmprint\" rel=\"nofollow\" title=\"Print this article\"><i class=\"icon-print\"><\/i><\/a><\/li><li><a class=\"bmsend2friend\" href=\"mailto:?subject=Article of interest: PI-BREAK -
