This book identifies the unique success factors of emerging markets firms and creates new dimensions and paradigms for managerial knowledge.

In this book the authors identify the hidden success factors that have made emerging market companies globally successful. There are a large number of firms operating in emerging markets that have become very successful. With their growing economies, liberalization of markets and improvements in their infrastructure, emerging markets represent the future. The contribution of firms from emerging markets in understanding the drivers of marketing success is not very well understood. Do they employ strategies developed in advanced markets by advanced market firms or do they have a global vision of their own?

The most pertinent tsunami related issues such as water borne debris during tsunami flooding, design loads to incorporate for impact forces on coastal zone infrastructure, detection and warning are meticulously incorporated in this book.Modelling of various coastal processes have proven to be successful in the recent past, which includes extreme events such as storm surge, cyclone, etc. The possible provisions for computational/numerical tsunami modelling and real physical modelling in laboratory are elaborated. The propagation, evolution and run-up of tsunami waves and their associated non-linear dynamics are discussed.The significant inferences from the experts who have had hands-on experience working with the extensive magnitude of a tsunami disaster reported on the signature studies and post-facto effects of the 2004 Indian Ocean Tsunami, with respect to the damages along the Indian coast.

Free-surface flow (or wave) interaction with vegetation is a complex subject. In order to understand the underlying physical processes either physical experiments or numerical simulations, or ideally in complement, can be employed. Both approaches face lots of challenges. For example in experiments, the research question is how to scale-down appropriately the large-scale physics and how to interpret the experimental data. In numerical simulations, how to approximate numerically the complex wave-multiple rigid or flexible structures (vegetal stems) including the resolution of turbulence at all spatial and temporal scales.This book reviews the state of the art of the research in the area of wave-vegetation interaction for coastal applications using numerical and experimental approaches. The reference text will be useful to students, early-career researchers, teachers and practicing engineers in the field of ocean engineering, civil engineering and climate change.

This unique compendium comprehensively covers several important topics related to the field of maritime hydraulics, particularly the underlying physics in the wave structure interaction with the coastal structures, coastal and inland flooding during extreme events in addition to perineal erosion. These topics are well understood through physical and numerical modelling, in which the scale effects, proving the models and its range of applicability are vividly discussed.This useful reference text serves as a guide to engineers, planners, researchers, decision makers and graduate students working in the field of coastal, estuarine and harbor engineering.
