Irregular Wave Overtopping Rates

open access: yesCoastal Engineering 1984, 1984
Methods for estimating wave overtopping of coastal structures are reviewed and compared with the very limited available data and with each other. The different methods yield results which can vary more than an order-of-magnitude. For vertical seawalls, the U. S.

Analytical Approach on Wave Overtopping on Levees

open access: yesCoastal 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 ...

Dynamical Precursors and Temporal Persistence of Environmental Forcing in Wave Overtopping at a Field-Scale Breakwater

open access: yesJournal of Marine Science and Engineering
Wave overtopping is one of the most complex coastal hazards to characterize in field conditions due to its high non-linearity and the interaction between unsteady hydrodynamics and wave–structure processes.

Irregular Wave Overtopping of Seawalls [PDF]

open access: yesOCEANS '86, 1986
This paper discusses recent laboratory tests of irregular wave overtopping of coastal structures being conducted at the Coastal Engineering Research Center (CERC). Current model tests of seawalls has led to an improved method for predicting wave overtopping rates.

A review of empirical dam breach models

open access: yesRiver, EarlyView.
Abstract Dam breach modelling is central to flood risk assessment, yet the empirical models commonly used for estimating breach parameters display considerable variability and uncertainty. This review evaluates the performance of widely applied empirical dam breach models and identifies those that consistently show lower uncertainty, such as the ...

Spatial distribution of regular wave overtopping on landscape revetment during typhoon landfalls

open access: yesApplied Ocean Research
Typhoons raise nearshore water levels and generate large waves, posing significant wave overtopping risks to low-crested revetments designed with hydrophilic considerations.

Hydrodynamic characteristics analysis of wave overtopping on landside under different slope protection conditions

open access: yesShuili Shuiyun Gongcheng Xuebao, 2019
The wave overflow is a phenomenon that the water level caused by strong storm surge in front of the seawall exceeds the top of the seawall and the seawall is subjected to the combined action of the overtopping and overflow.

Overtopping Performance of a Pier-Type Slope-Ramp Breakwater-Integrated Overtopping Wave Energy Converter: An Experimental Study

open access: yesJournal of Marine Science and Engineering
Overtopping wave energy converters share a similar geometry with traditional slope-ramp breakwaters, allowing integrated development that simultaneously ensures the basic protection function of the structure and realizes wave energy absorption.
