STATISTICAL PROPERTIES OF SHORT-TERM OVERTOPPING
Coastal Engineering Proceedings, 1984 It has been recognized recently that large waves tend to form a group in random sea waves. Overtopping tends to occur particularly when a group of high waves attacks a sea wall. If the capacity of a storage reservoir inside the sea wall is not sufficiently large enough to store a total amount of overtopping brought about by a single group of ...

International Journal of Maritime Technology, 2015 Wave overtopping at breakwaters is one of their essential hydraulic characteristics when determining the design crest level. This study concentrates on developing a new practical formula on predicting wave overtopping, by implementing two different ...

Adapting to climate change: the self-learning dike [PDF]
, 2007 A problem with the current probabilistic flood prevention strategy in the Netherlands is that it builds on knowledge about the probability distributions for extreme discharges, which are subject to considerable uncertainties due to limited peak discharge

Scale Effects Related to Small Physical Modelling of Overtopping of Rubble Mound Breakwaters [PDF]
, 2009 By comparison of overtopping discharges recorded in prototype and small scale physical models it was demonstrated in the EU-CLASH project that small scale tests significantly underestimate smaller discharges.

Extreme Potomac Floods at Washington D.C. During the Past 500 Years
Geophysical Research Letters, Volume 53, Issue 2, 28 January 2026.Abstract Washington D.C. faces one of the highest 100‐year flood risks of any major city along the U.S. East Coast. In addition to storm‐surge inundation during hurricanes and nor'easters, water‐level observations for Washington are strongly skewed by major floods on the Potomac River.

Spatial distribution of regular wave overtopping on landscape revetment during typhoon landfalls
Applied Ocean ResearchTyphoons raise nearshore water levels and generate large waves, posing significant wave overtopping risks to low-crested revetments designed with hydrophilic considerations.

A hybrid stabilization technique for simulating water wave - Structure interaction by incompressible Smoothed Particle Hydrodynamics (ISPH) method [PDF]
, 2018 The Smoothed Particle Hydrodynamics (SPH) method is emerging as a potential tool for studying water wave related problems, especially for violent free surface flow and large deformation problems. The incompressible SPH (ISPH) computations have been found

Advanced Science, Volume 13, Issue 6, 30 January 2026.A microneedle spoilage sensor for packaged food products is presented. The sensor is composed entirely of food‐derived agents, integrated together using a novel material processing approach. This resultant platform nondestructively reports spoilage state in real‐time through a colorimetric output.

The SSG Wave Energy Converter: Performance, Status and Recent Developments
Energies, 2012 The Sea-wave Slot-cone Generator (SSG) is a Wave Energy Converter based on the wave overtopping principle; it employs several reservoirs placed on top of each other, in which the energy of incoming waves is stored as potential energy.
