Instability of Grass Caused by Wave Overtopping [PDF]

open access: yesScour 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.

A Critical Analysis and Validation of the Accuracy of Wave Overtopping Prediction Formulae for OWECs

open access: yesEnergies, 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

Characterization of Overtopping Waves on Sea Dikes with Gentle and Shallow Foreshores

open access: yesJournal 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.

Wave Transmission by Overtopping

open access: yesJournal 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.

Wave Overtopping at Sea Dikes on Shallow Foreshores: A Review, an Evaluation, and Remaining Challenges

open access: yesJournal 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 ...

Development of Wave Overtopping–Overflow Transition Model Based on Full-scale Experiments

open access: yes한국해양공학회지, 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.

Laboratory study of the combined wave and surge overtopping-induced normal stress on dike

open access: yesFrontiers in Marine Science, 2023
Normal stress on dikes is one of the most critical parameters for a sound dike design. With more rapidly rising sea levels due to global warming, dikes are seriously threatened by overtopping induced by the combination of wave and storm surge.

Role of Beach Morphology in Wave Overtopping Hazard Assessment

open access: yesJournal of Marine Science and Engineering, 2017
Understanding the role of beach morphology in controlling wave overtopping volume will further minimise uncertainties in flood risk assessments at coastal locations defended by engineered structures worldwide.

WAVE OVERTOPPING SIMULATOR TESTS IN VIET NAM [PDF]

open access: yesCoastal Engineering Proceedings, 2011
Sea dikes in Viet Nam have been built up during a long history. Every year, about 4 to 6 storms attack the coast and cause severe damages of the sea dikes. Till now, little is known about strength and stability of the inner slope covered with grass under impacts of wave overtopping during storm surges.
