Overtopping of Berm Breakwaters Evaluation of Overtopping Formula

open access: yes, 2005
The berm breakwater concept is basicly rather old, but was not used very much until it was “reinvented” in the early 1980’ties, when a slope protection for an airfield runway extending into the sea in the Alutian Islands, Alaska was designed.

VERTICAL SEA WALL CREST MODIFICATIONS FOR OVERTOPPING

open access: yesCoastal Engineering Proceedings, 2018
Crest modifications such as a storm wall, parapet or a bullnose are widely used to reduce the wave overtopping over coastal structures where spatial and visual demands restrict the crest heights, especially in urban areas. Although reduction factors of these modifications have been studied for sloped structures in EurOtop Manual (2016), there is ...

Safety Assessment of Concrete Gravity Dams: Hydromechanical Coupling and Fracture Propagation

open access: yesGeosciences
For the safety assessment of concrete dam–foundation systems, this study used an explicit time-stepping small-displacement algorithm, which simulates the hydromechanical interaction and considers the discrete representation of the foundation ...

Multiscale Numerical Modeling of Wave Overtopping for Pedestrian Hazard Classification and Risk Assessment

open access: yesJournal of Marine Science and Engineering
The risk of wave overtopping is amplifying under sea-level rise and increased frequency of extreme coastal events. Conventional empirical and physical methods for estimating overtopping characteristics are limited by site-specific assumptions, which ...

Numerical Study of Flow Characteristics on Landward Levee Slopes Under Overtopping at Different Froude Numbers

open access: yesSci
Most levees are composed of earthen materials, making their structural stability vulnerable under flood conditions, especially in the case of overtopping. This study aims to analyze the relationship between the channel Froude number and the flow behavior

Vulnerability of bangladesh to cyclones in a changing climate : potential damages and adaptation cost [PDF]

open access: yes
This paper integrates information on climate change, hydrodynamic models, and geographic overlays to assess the vulnerability of coastal areas in Bangladesh to larger storm surges and sea-level rise by 2050. The approach identifies polders (diked areas),

Dams and overtopping: a polyhedral relationship [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
This paper discusses the different elements playing a role in causes and consequences of dam overtopping: the river basin, the reservoir, the dam and the spillway, the riverbed and the territory downstream of the reservoir.
