Risk assessment of Vaniyar earth dam overtopping using system dynamics and effect of overtopping flood on the downstream lands of the dam. [PDF]
رویکردهای نوین در مهندسی آب و محیط زیستObjective: Dams play a key role in controlling floods and minimizing associated losses. They reduce downstream losses by lowering the flood peak and enable a safer flood stream.

Overtopping layer thickness and overtopping flow velocity on mound breakwaters [PDF]
Coastal Engineering, 2019 [EN] Mound breakwater design is evolving owing to rising sea levels caused by climate change and social concern regarding the visual impact of coastal structures. The crest freeboard of coastal structures tends to decrease while overtopping hazard increases over time.

Modeling water penetration at dam-foundation joint [PDF]
, 2007 When fracture occurs in a concrete dam, the crack mouth is typically exposed to water. Very often this phenomenon occurs at the dam-foundation joint and is driven also by the fluid pressure inside the crack.

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.

2D-HEC-RAS Modeling of Flood Wave Propagation in a Semi-Arid Area Due to Dam Overtopping Failure
Civil Engineering Journal, 2021 Dam overtopping failure and the resulting floods are hazardous events that highly impact the inundated areas and are less predictable. The simulation of the dam breach failure and the flood wave propagation is necessary for assessing flood hazards to ...
