COMPARISON OF NUMERICAL AND EXPERIMENTAL RESULTS FOR OVERTOPPING DISCHARGE OF THE OBREC WAVE ENERGY CONVERTER [PDF]
Journal of Engineering Science and Technology, 2017 OBREC is the latest innovation of overtopping wave energy converter (WEC) which is coalesced with the rubble mound breakwaters. The acquisition of wave overtopping in a front reservoir and consequently releasing process through turbine is the concept of ...

Wave Transmission by Overtopping
Journal of the Waterways, Harbors and Coastal Engineering Division, 1972 This report presents a semi-empirical theory for ocean wave transmission past breakwaters by overtopping, based on an evaluation of the energy content of the overtopping water. While several coefficients are subject to further investigation, the data show that the general form of the equations developed is correct.

Boreas, EarlyView.Map of Lower sediment (LS) thickness is a surrogate for the distribution of Thorncliffe Formation (TF) and ~75% of TF thickness from the slope of Niagara Escarpment east to Brighton. Inset images show the LS sequence at the Don Valleys brickyards (DVBY) and undeformed TF sand and gravel (~15 m) below Newmarket Till (NT) at sites L and Co.

Single Slope Shore Protection as a Wave Energy Catcher
MATEC Web of Conferences, 2018 Wave energy is being increasingly regarded in many countries as a major, promising and renewable resource. This paper presents the development of slope coastal protection as a wave energy converter by capturing sea water into the reservoir through ...

Living With Peak Discharge Uncertainty: The Self-learning Dike [PDF]
, 2008 Although river dikes still play a key role for flood protection in the Netherlands\ud there is a growing interest for other measures to deal with larger peak discharges, such as\ud lowering or widening the floodplains.

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.

Irregular Wave Overtopping Rates
Coastal Engineering 1984, 1984 Methods for estimating wave overtopping of coastal structures are reviewed and compared with the very limited available data and with each other. The different methods yield results which can vary more than an order-of-magnitude. For vertical seawalls, the U. S.

1166. Helianthus occidentalis Riddell
Curtis's Botanical Magazine, EarlyView.Summary Helianthus occidentalis Riddell (Compositae: Heliantheae: Helianthinae) is described and illustrated. The species' placement in the genus is commented on, as are the differences in infrageneric placement of the other species Heiser originally grouped H. occidentalis with.
