Overtopping Metrics and Coastal Safety: A Case of Study from the Catalan Coast
Journal of Marine Science and Engineering, 2020 Design criteria for coastal defenses exposed to wave overtopping are usually assessed by mean overtopping discharges and maximum individual overtopping volumes.

Estimation of Wave overtopping on Reshaping Breakwaters [PDF]
محیط زیست و مهندسی آب, 2016 The breakwater as structures that have an important role in the protection of coastal facilities was used to create calm in the harbor, reduce wave energy and also protect the coast against wave attack.

Journal of Marine Science and Engineering, 2020 The wave overtopping discharge at coastal defense structures is directly linked to the freeboard height. By means of physical modelling, experiments on wave overtopping volumes at sloped coastal structures are customarily determined for constant water ...

Reduction of wave overtopping by Vetiver grass [PDF]
, 2006 In this research Vetiver grass is investigated as outer slope protection in order to reduce wave overtopping discharges. In consequence sea dike crest can be reduced.

Wave Overtopping on Rubble Mound Breakwaters
Coastal Engineering 1988, 1988 The paper gives the results of an extensive series of hydraulic model tests carried out in a random wave flume, in order to study the effects on wave overtopping of the main geometric parameters of a typical rubble mound breakwater with crown wall.

Irregular Wave Overtopping Rates
Coastal 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
Coastal 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 ...

Journal of Marine Science and EngineeringWave 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.
