New insights in the probability distributions of wave-by-wave overtopping volumes at vertical breakwaters [PDF]
Scientific Reports, 2022 Advances in the development of prediction tools for wave overtopping allow now for overtopping volumes to be estimated with good accuracy, with the combined use of mean overtopping rates and maximum wave by wave overtopping volumes in a sequence of wave ...

A Critical Analysis and Validation of the Accuracy of Wave Overtopping Prediction Formulae for OWECs [PDF]
Energies, 2018 The development of wave energy devices is growing in recent years. One type of device is the overtopping wave energy converter (OWEC), for which the knowledge of the wave overtopping rates is a basic and crucial aspect in their design. In particular, the

A comprehensive dataset of riverine levee overtopping events for advancing risk assessment [PDF]
Scientific DataEarthen levees are the primary flood protection infrastructure worldwide, with overtopping recognized as the most prevalent mode of their failure. Despite its significance, detailed field data on overtopping events are often limited and fragmented.
