International Journal of Naval Architecture and Ocean Engineering, 2014 Rubble mound breakwaters protect the coastal line against severe erosion caused by wave action. This study examined the performance of different sizes and properties (i.e. height of vertical wall and tetrapod size) of rubble mound breakwaters on reducing

A Laboratory experiment of wave overtopping over dike on steep fringing reef
Journal of Applied Science and EngineeringThis paper presents a laboratory study to investigate the wave overtopping over dike on the fringing reef with a large steep fore-reef slope. The experimented models were set up in wave flume, considering three different slopes of dike combined with ...

Experiment study on overtopping of sloping breakwater by swell [PDF]
Along with global climate changing, the disaster caused by overtopping from breakwater or revetment seems further serious. There are many factors which related with wave overtopping flux, one is wave period, some researches have big gap on it.

WIREs Climate Change, Volume 16, Issue 6, November/December 2025.What makes a gold standard natural experiment? Research on disaster impacts often relies on case studies which lack elements of a natural experimental research design. Some or all of these elements may be available when a hazard event occurs between waves of a longitudinal survey.

Monsoon and Glacial Meltwater Input Drive Seasonal Cooling of a Himalayan Ice‐Contact Lake
Water Resources Research, Volume 61, Issue 11, November 2025.Abstract Thousands of glacial lakes exist across the Himalaya. However, the physical characteristics of these lakes that drive changes in glacier mass balance and meltwater delivery downstream are poorly understood. We measured water temperature with depth in Thulagi Lake, Nepal, between May and October 2023 to give the first observations of the ...

Analytical Approach on Wave Overtopping on Levees
Coastal Engineering 1970, 1970 An analytical approach to evaluate the amount of overtopping for given conditions is studied in this paper Here, the wave overtopping is considered as a similar phenomenon to the flow over a weir changing the depth with respect to time The theoretical approaches used by many scholars have been mostly based on the dimensional analysis In this paper ...

Numerical Study of Wave Overtopping Based on Local Method of Approximate Particular Solution Method
Advances in Mechanical Engineering, 2014 In order to study the wave overtopping process, this paper establishes a two-dimensional numerical wave flume based on a meshless algorithm, local method of approximate particular solution (the LMAPS method), and the technology of momentum source wave ...
