Single Slope Shore Protection as a Wave Energy Catcher
MATEC Web of Conferences, 2018 Wave energy is being increasingly regarded in many countries as a major, promising and renewable resource. This paper presents the development of slope coastal protection as a wave energy converter by capturing sea water into the reservoir through ...

A review of empirical dam breach models
River, Volume 5, Issue 3, Page 328-350, August 2026.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 ...

Influence of directional spreading on wave overtopping of sea dikes with gentle and shallow foreshores [PDF]
, 2020 The work highlights the importance of directional spreading effects on wave overtopping estimation in shallow and mild sloping foreshores. Wave short-crestedness leads, in general, to a reduction of mean overtopping discharges on coastal structures.

Alluvial ridge morphology on avulsing rivers
Sedimentology, Volume 73, Issue 6, Page 2311-2337, October 2026.ABSTRACT Alluvial ridges are built by preferential channel‐belt deposition and control river avulsions, yet a systematic analysis of their morphology has been missing. To address this gap, we analyse a globally distributed dataset of 8970 alluvial ridge flanks on 14 different rivers.

Coupled Dynamics Between Networks and Fields in Physical Space: A Theoretical Perspective
Annalen der Physik, Volume 538, Issue 9, September 2026.Networks embedded in physical space often communicate through dynamical fields that both mediate and respond to collective behavior. A unified theoretical perspective is presented for these network‐field systems, linking established mathematical frameworks and revealing how feedback between discrete interactions and continuous spatial processes can ...

Journal of Marine Science and Engineering, 2023 Overtopping flow velocity (OFV) and overtopping layer thickness (OTL) are essential parameters in breakwater design. Several empirical equations to predict these parameters are available in many works of literature, but most of the equations were derived
