Based on the evaluation criteria of the impact of different types of reclamation design on the natural environment of coastal waters, the environmental fluid dynamics model was used to simulate the seawater environment in 13 scenarios from three aspects: the shape of the artificial island, the size of inner lake outlet and the layout of the artificial island. The hydrodynamic force and water exchange capacity of these islands were quantitatively compared, and the effects of different artificial islands on the Marine environment were summarized. The planning morphology design guidelines are summarized in four aspects: (1) reduce the serrated steep slope shoreline, avoid forming semi-closed water, and increase the simple and smooth shoreline; (2) reduce the width of the lake mouth to increase the length of the lake; (3) choose a simple alignment parallel to the shore; (4) the design mainly focuses on the morphology of shoreline, followed by consideration of the lake mouth and artificial island arrangement.

The purpose of the study was to evaluate the accuracy of monochromatic energy (MonoE) computed tomography (CT) images reconstructed by spectral CT in predicting the stopping power ratio $( SP{R}_w)$ of materials in the presence of metal. The CIRS062 phantom was scanned three times using spectral CT. In the first scan, a solid water insert was placed at the center of the phantom $(C{T}_{no\ metal})$. In the second scan, the solid water insert was replaced with a titanium alloy femoral head $(C{T}_{metal})$. The metal artifact reduction (MAR) algorithm was used in the last scan $(C{T}_{metal+ MAR})$. The MonoE-CT images of 40 keV and 80 keV were reconstructed. Finally, the single-energy CT method (SECT) and the dual-energy CT method (DECT) were used to calculate the $SP{R}_w$. The mean absolute error (MAE) of the $SP{R}_w$ of the inner layer inserts calculated by the SECT method were 3.19%, 13.88% and 2.71%, corresponding to $C{T}_{no\ metal}$, $C{T}_{metal}$ and $C{T}_{metal+ MAR}$, respectively. For the outer layer inserts, the MAE of $SP{R}_w$ were 3.43%, 5.42% and 2.99%, respectively. Using the DECT method, the MAE of the $SP{R}_w$ of the inner layer inserts was 1.30%, 3.69% and 1.46% and the MAE of the outer layer inserts– was 1.34%, 1.36% and 1.05%. The studies shows that, compared with the SECT method, the accuracy of the DECT method in predicting the $SP{R}_w$ of a material is more robust to the presence of metal. Using the MAR algorithm when performing CT scans can further improve the accuracy of predicting the SPR of materials in the presence of metal.
