Juan J. Munoz-Perez has worked in private companies both in consulting and public works (CORSAN), as well as in the ports of Barcelona and Cadiz. Asa civil servant,he has been Chief Engineer of the Projects and Works Serviceinthe Atlantic CoastalDepartment (1989-2004) and Headof it (2009-2012), planning, supervising and directingabout400 maritime works. He is a Professor at the University of Cadiz, teaching subjects of Coastal Engineering, Submarine Emissaries, Hydraulic Works, Physical Modeling in PortsandLitoral Dynamics since 1991. He isalsothe author of numerous contributions in Congresses and articles in prestigious journals as a result of the projects he hasmanaged through the Coastal Engineering research group (RNM-912) that he runs.

Pilar Diaz-Carrasco is currently Assistant Professor at University of Seville - Department of Construction Engineering and Engineering Projects. PhD in Civil Engineering funded by a predoctoral contract support for the University Teacher Training at University of Granada, Spain.She was the lead postdoctoral marine engineering expert at the University of Sherbrooke, Canada (2020-2022), leading and performing project tasks aimed at studying and modelling damage to marine structures as a consequence of coastal erosion due to Sea Level Rise. These models were relevant to simulate current conditions and erosion damage on the Canadian coast. After that, she was a postdoctoral researcher at the Polytechnic University of Valencia (2022-2023), leader in laboratory testing tasks and development of new ideas to generate a method for repairing structures and solutions with low environmental/economic impact.The main points of her research are (1) analysis of maritime structures from lab-experimentation and numerical modeling, (2) projection of future scenarios and solutions to sea level rise, and (3) seabed behavior around offshore structures.She isthe author of numerous contributions in Congresses and Papers in prestigious journals.Hercontributions can be consulted in her public profile (www.researchgate.net/profile/Pilar-Diaz-Carrasco).
