Random wave overtopping of vertical seawalls on coral reefs
Applied Ocean Research, 2020Abstract Reliable estimations of overtopping rates are necessary for the design of vertical seawalls. Although many studies have been carried out to address this, few have paid attention to vertical seawalls built on coral reefs. In this study, a physical model was constructed with an idealized coral reef topography and vertical seawalls located on ...

Violent Overtopping of Vertical Seawalls Under Oblique Wave Conditions
Coastal Structures 2003, 2004This paper describes how most prediction methods for wave overtopping are based on physical model tests under simple 2-D conditions. This paper also describes experiments to measure mean and wave-by-wave overtopping discharge under oblique wave attack. Results suggest that overtopping discharges reduce significantly only for angles of wave attach that ...

Random wave interaction with vertical seawalls defended by porous submerged breakwaters
Physics of FluidsRising sea levels and intensified storm waves due to climate change may increase the wave loading and overtopping on vertical seawalls, potentially causing damage or coastal flooding. Porous submerged breakwaters are being used to retrofit these existing

Enhancing alpha and beta diversity on vertical seawalls by retrofitting eco-engineered panels.
Marine Pollution BulletinThe effect of surface heterogeneity of manmade substrate on alpha diversity of intertidal epibiota is well-studied, but its influence on beta diversity remains largely unexplored. Herein, two designs of eco-engineered panels were retrofitted onto existing vertical seawalls in three regions of Hong Kong Special Administrative Region, China, and were ...

An expert system for the design of gravity-type vertical seawalls
Engineering Applications of Artificial Intelligence, 1992Abstract It is feasible to develop expert systems for complicated design processes in the field of harbour and port engineering. This paper presents how knowledge about the design of a gravity-type vertical seawall can be represented in a manner appropriate for the new computing technology of expert systems, resulting in a computer program which can ...

WAVE OVERTOPPING AT VERTICAL SEAWALLS: FIELD AND LABORATORY MEASUREMENTS OF SPATIAL DISTRIBUTIONS
Coastal Engineering 2006, 2007Guidance on levels of safe overtopping discharge that can be tolerated by members of the public are often based on arbitrarily set values with little validation. Generally these values will indicate a mean discharge, but will not take into account how the overtopping is distributed across the seawall.
