Wave overtopping at vertical structures: Comparison of different formulas

open access: yes, 2020
Wave overtopping is considered an important aspect when designing waterfront or sea-defense structures, making it a part of any design to predict the overtopping rate.

Reduction of Wave Overtopping and Force Impact at Harbor Quays Due to Very Oblique Waves

open access: yesJournal of Marine Science and Engineering, 2020
Physical model experiments were conducted in a wave tank at Flanders Hydraulics Research, Antwerp, Belgium, to characterize the wave overtopping and impact force on vertical quay walls and sloping sea dike (1:2.5) under very oblique wave attack (angle ...

Hydraulic reconstruction of catastrophic drainage from the Late Glacial, Lake Fraser, British Columbia, Canada

open access: yesJournal of Quaternary Science, Volume 41, Issue 6, Page 873-887, August 2026.
ABSTRACT Glacial Lake Fraser, which formed in British Columbia against the retreating Cordilleran Ice Sheet, stored ~520 km3 of water before its near‐total drainage into the Salish Sea during an outburst flood event. Despite the impact of the outburst flood on sediment transport and landscape evolution in the Fraser River valley, its peak discharge and

EVALUATION OF MEAN WAVE OVERTOPPING AND MAXIMUM INDIVIDUAL WAVE OVERTOPPING ON ROCK REVETMENT

open access: yesJurnal Teknologi (Sciences & Engineering)
An accurate estimation of wave overtopping discharge on rock revetment is important to protect coastal areas from possible hazards. The mean discharge value is often used in the coastal structural design. However, the anticipated impact of the maximum volume of overtopping by individual waves is expected to be significant in wave overtopping ...

VERTICAL DISTRIBUTION OF WAVE OVERTOPPING FOR DESIGN OF MULTI LEVEL OVERTOPPING BASED WAVE ENERGY CONVERTERS

open access: yesCoastal Engineering 2006, 2007
This paper presents an expression describing the vertical distribution of overtopping, the experimental work leading to this, as well as the use of the expression for numerical optimization of the geometrical layout of the multi level overtopping based wave energy converter Seawave Slot-cone Generator.

Increasing Frequency of Coastal Erosion Indicated by a Hindcast Model of Storm‐Driven Forcing Calibrated With Beach Stratigraphy

open access: yesEarth's Future, Volume 14, Issue 8, August 2026.
Abstract Beach stratigraphy at North Beach, Sandy Hook, New Jersey is used to calibrate a model of coastal erosion, establish a model‐based erosion threshold, and evaluate how often threshold conditions have been exceeded since 1979 through hindcast analysis.

HYDRODYNAMIC LOAD ON THE BUILDING CAUSED BY OVERTOPPING WAVES [PDF]

open access: yesCoastal Engineering Proceedings, 2012
Wide crested dike can reduce the kinetic energy of the overtopping wave and make the overtopping wave to flow back to the seaside. If a coastal town were built on or near a dike, the overtopping wave running on the dike crest generates the force which can affect the buildings located in its path.

Wave Energy Transfer in Shallow Water: Numerical Investigation of Slope and Offshore Wave Condition Effects

open access: yesJournal of Geophysical Research: Oceans, Volume 131, Issue 8, August 2026.
Abstract This study advances the understanding of nonlinear wave interactions in shallow water by numerically quantifying how foreshore slope and offshore conditions influence energy transfer and wave evolution over a broad range of conditions. Two non‐hydrostatic models, SWASH and XBeach, are validated against physical experiments and applied across a

COMPARISON OF NUMERICAL AND EXPERIMENTAL RESULTS FOR OVERTOPPING DISCHARGE OF THE OBREC WAVE ENERGY CONVERTER [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Engineering Science and Technology, 2017
OBREC is the latest innovation of overtopping wave energy converter (WEC) which is coalesced with the rubble mound breakwaters. The acquisition of wave overtopping in a front reservoir and consequently releasing process through turbine is the concept of ...
