The effect of waves on rubble-mound structures [PDF]
, 1975 For thousands of years breakwaters have been built at or near the coast to protect harbors or coastlines from wave attack. One of the earliest known harbor protection schemes was devised in about 2000 B.C.

Development of Wave Overtopping–Overflow Transition Model Based on Full-scale Experiments
한국해양공학회지, 2020 When high waves and storm surge strike simultaneously, the characteristics of the fluid field change drastically from overtopping according to the wave runup height to overflow through a transition state that combines overtopping and overflows.

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

THE WAVE OVERTOPPING SIMULATOR [PDF]
Coastal Engineering 2006, 2007 The wave overtopping simulator is a device which will be able to simulate overtopping waves at the crest and at the inner slope of a dike, levee or embankment in situ. The idea is that real waves are not required to simulate only the overtopping part of waves and that enough information on overtopping waves has been developed by years of research, to ...
