Wave overtopping: Impact of water jets on grassed inner slope transitions

open access: yes, 2009
The safety of a large part of the Netherlands depends on sea dikes. Due to climate change, a sea level rise is predicted. Together with stronger storms and more wave attack, wave overtopping on the current dikes will increase. As a response, crest levels

A Laboratory experiment of wave overtopping over dike on steep fringing reef

open access: yesJournal of Applied Science and Engineering
This 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 ...

Test and use of new Boussinesq wave model to analyse wave run-up and overtopping [PDF]

open access: yes
openIn response to the growing challenges posed by climate change and rising sea levels, the design and assessment of coastal protection structures—such as dikes and dunes—require reliable predictions of wave run-up and overtopping.

Numerical Simulations of the Hydraulic Performance of a Breakwater-Integrated Overtopping Wave Energy Converter

open access: yesJournal of Marine Science and Engineering, 2019
OBREC is the acronym that stands for Overtopping Breakwater for Energy Conversion. It is a multifunctional device aimed to produce energy from the waves, while keeping the harbour area protected from flooding.

Effects of wave obliquity and short-crestedness on wave overtopping on sea dikes, 3D physical model tests

open access: yes, 2006
Few number of wave overtopping equations are used to predict the overtoppingdischarges over sea dikes in the world. However, the review of available literature onwave overtopping has shown that the influence of wave obliquity on waveovertopping is still ...

Numerical Study of Wave Overtopping Based on Local Method of Approximate Particular Solution Method

open access: yesAdvances 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 ...
