Impact of Nonlinear Standing Waves Underneath a Deck [PDF]

open access: yesArchives of Civil Engineering, 2020
A theoretical approach was applied to investigate the impact of nonlinear standing waves underneath a horizontal deck. A solution was achieved by applying a boundary element method. The model was applied to predict impact pressure underneath a deck.

Experimental Study on the Influence of Berms and Roughness on Wave Overtopping at Rock-Armoured Dikes

open access: yesJournal of Marine Science and Engineering, 2020
The average overtopping discharge is an important parameter for the design and reinforcement of dikes. Rock armour on the waterside slopes and berms of dikes is widely used to reduce the wave overtopping discharge by introducing slope roughness and ...
