Multiscale Numerical Modeling of Wave Overtopping for Pedestrian Hazard Classification and Risk Assessment

Journal of Marine Science and Engineering
The risk of wave overtopping is amplifying under sea-level rise and increased frequency of extreme coastal events. Conventional empirical and physical methods for estimating overtopping characteristics are limited by site-specific assumptions, which ...

Numerical Simulation of Wave Overtopping From Armour Breakwater by Considering Porous Effect

نشریه مهندسی دریا, 2016
Wave overtopping on the breakwaters is an important issue in breakwaters’ design. Most of the previous studies focused on experimental researches and numerical modeling of irregular wave overtopping particularly on porous breakwaters has not been studied.

On the tuning of a wave-energy driven oscillating-water-column seawater pump to polychromatic waves

, 2007
Performance of wave-energy devices of the oscillating water column (OWC) type is greatly enhanced when a resonant condition with the forcing waves is maintained.
