Concave sea walls are sea walls that are curved inward towards the water rather than straight or outward. They are designed to absorb and disperse wave energy more effectively, reducing erosion and protecting the shoreline. The curved shape helps to redirect wave energy back towards the sea, minimizing the force that hits the wall.

Why the bottom of the tank appears to be concave?

The concave appearance at the bottom of the tank is likely due to the water pressure pushing against the walls of the tank, causing them to bulge inward slightly. This effect is more noticeable in larger tanks where the walls are subjected to greater pressure. It doesn't necessarily mean there is a structural issue with the tank as long as it is designed to handle the pressure.
