Défense de côtes : ouvrage de protection des côtes maritimes contre l'action érosive et destructrice des vagues. Fonction du géotextile. Filtre : le géotextile limite la migration des particules fines des sols sous l'action des courants de percolation provoqués par les vagues et empêche ainsi une érosion interne de ces sols et une instabilité consécutive de l'ouvrage de défense. Renforcement : le géotextile reprend et répartit les sollicitations localisées et, par sa résistance à la traction et sa continuité, s'oppose à l'action déstabilisatrice des ouvrages de défense par les vagues. Séparation : le géotextile empêche une interpénétration des matériaux de constitution de l'ouvrage de défense et des sols sous-jacents. 2, record 1, French, - sous%2Dcouche%20de%20d%C3%A9fense%20de%20c%C3%B4tes
