Wave Overtopping on Coastal Structures
Journal of Waterway, Port, Coastal, and Ocean Engineering, 1989Monochromatic wave overtopping over the crest of an impermeable coastal structure located on a sloping beach is predicted numerically by expanding the numerical model developed previously for predicting wave run-up on such a structure located on the horizontal seabed.

Wave Overtopping and Overwash of Dunes
Journal of Waterway, Port, Coastal, and Ocean Engineering, 2011Wave-induced overwash of sand dunes may cause rapid profile changes and possible dune destruction, thus increasing the flood risk landward of dunes. Accurate modeling of the wave overwash processes is therefore essential in predicting dune profile evolution during overwash events. However, available field and laboratory data are very limited.

Wave overtopping is a key process in coastal protection and its assessment defines the design of the sea defence structures. An existing knowledge gap in wave overtopping prediction is identified for steep low-crested structures, i.e., structures with ...

Wave overtopping is a critical aspect to take into consideration when designing a coastal structure. An adequate crest geometry (a combination of height and width) is required to maintain the required acceptable safety levels for the population and ...

, 2008 Assessment of flood risk for coastal sites should include identifying direct hazards caused by wave overtopping as well as flood extent and volumes. Direct hazards are likely to be critical for users and property on or immediately behind the defence line.

Irregular Wave Runup and Overtopping
Journal of the Waterway, Port, Coastal and Ocean Division, 1978A cumulative frequency distribution function for the runup elevation of irregular waves is useful in the design of many coastal structures. Such a relationship would help a designer to quantify trade offs between structure geometry and allowable overtopping.

Optimization of stepped revetment configuration on minimizing wave run-up and overtopping
The Physics of FluidsA stepped revetment has proven to be able to attenuate wave run-up height and wave overtopping discharge more effectively than a dike or a smooth-slope revetment does. However, the investigation into the optimal design of a stepped revetment, tailored to

Full-scale experimental study on wave overtopping at stepped revetments
, 2021Stepped revetments are effective in limiting wave overtopping. Small-scale studies provided insights in the design of crest-levels and step geometries of these structures.

Wave transmission by overtopping due to random waves
Ocean Engineering, 1988Abstract Experimental studies of wave transmission by overtopping for a smooth impermeable breakwater with 1:1.5 slope under both regular and random waves were conducted. A resulting relationship between the transmission coefficient (determined by wave height and wave period) and a breakwater height above mean water level normalized with the height ...

Estimation of Wave Overtopping Rates for Irregular Waves
Journal of Waterway, Port, Coastal, and Ocean Engineering, 1997The Shore Protection Manual (SPM) method for estimating the volume rate of wave overtopping under irregular waves is reviewed and extended. This article presents an improved method of applying a monochromatic wave overtopping equation to irregular waves. The improvement is to remove an assumption made by the current SPM method.
