Remote Sensing of Wave Overtopping on Dynamic Coastal Structures
Remote Sensing, 2022 The development of coastal regions combined with rising sea levels is leading to an increasing risk of coastal flooding caused by wave overtopping of natural beaches and engineered coastal structures.

Journal of Marine Science and Engineering, 2020 Overtopping breakwater for energy conversion (OBREC) is integration between breakwater and wave energy converter (WEC) that allows incoming waves to be stored in the reservoir.

Overtopping of Coastal Structures by Tsunami Waves [PDF]
Geosciences, 2017 Following the 2011 Tohoku Earthquake and Tsunami, Japanese tsunami protection guidelines stipulate that coastal defences should ensure that settlements are shielded from the coastal inundation that would result from Level 1 tsunami events (with return periods in the order of about 100 years).

A Critical Analysis and Validation of the Accuracy of Wave Overtopping Prediction Formulae for OWECs
Energies, 2018 The development of wave energy devices is growing in recent years. One type of device is the overtopping wave energy converter (OWEC), for which the knowledge of the wave overtopping rates is a basic and crucial aspect in their design. In particular, the

Instability of Grass Caused by Wave Overtopping [PDF]
Scour and Erosion, 2010 This paper presents a method to deal with the instability of turf in a grass cover that could be considered as an engineering approach, in which both turbulence and two strength models (root model and turf-element model) are discussed in a heuristic way. Turbulence is discussed because of its essential role in erosion.

Characterization of Overtopping Waves on Sea Dikes with Gentle and Shallow Foreshores
Journal of Marine Science and Engineering, 2020 Due to ongoing climate change, overtopping risk is increasing. In order to have effective countermeasures, it is useful to understand overtopping processes in details.

Journal of Marine Science and Engineering, 2023 Wave overtopping is a critical parameter in the design of coastal defense structures. Nowadays, several empirical formulations based on small-scale experiments are available in the literature to predict the mean overtopping discharge at dikes on shallow ...

Wave Transmission by Overtopping
Journal of the Waterways, Harbors and Coastal Engineering Division, 1972 This report presents a semi-empirical theory for ocean wave transmission past breakwaters by overtopping, based on an evaluation of the energy content of the overtopping water. While several coefficients are subject to further investigation, the data show that the general form of the equations developed is correct.

Development of Wave Overtopping–Overflow Transition Model Based on Full-scale Experiments
한국해양공학회지, 2020 When high waves and storm surge strike simultaneously, the characteristics of the fluid field change drastically from overtopping according to the wave runup height to overflow through a transition state that combines overtopping and overflows.
