Comparative study on wave overtopping reduction performance on a novel dike-front wave dissipation basin and other engineering measures

open access: yesApplied Ocean Research
A dike-front Wave Dissipation Basin (WDB) is proposed as an engineering measure to reduce wave overtopping discharge over sea dikes. Flume tests are conducted to quantify the overtopping reduction effectiveness of the WDB and to compare it with other ...

Reducing Wave Overtopping on Rubble Mound Breakwaters Using Floating Kelp Farms

open access: yesJournal of Marine Science and Engineering
Near-surface floating kelp farms constitute a Nature-Based Solution (NBS) capable of damping incident wind-generated waves, which might be beneficial to reduce wave overtopping on maritime structures.

Multiscale Numerical Modeling of Wave Overtopping for Pedestrian Hazard Classification and Risk Assessment

open access: yesJournal of Marine Science and Engineering
The risk of wave overtopping is amplifying under sea-level rise and increased frequency of extreme coastal events. Conventional empirical and physical methods for estimating overtopping characteristics are limited by site-specific assumptions, which ...

Numerical Simulation of Wave Overtopping From Armour Breakwater by Considering Porous Effect

open access: yesنشریه مهندسی دریا, 2016
Wave overtopping on the breakwaters is an important issue in breakwaters’ design. Most of the previous studies focused on experimental researches and numerical modeling of irregular wave overtopping particularly on porous breakwaters has not been studied.

Wave Overtopping Equation

open access: yesCoastal Engineering 1976, 1976
In the early 1950's the Corps of Engineers' Jacksonville District initiated a series of laboratory tests to investigate the overtopping of proposed levee sections for Lake Okeechobee, Florida. For economic reasons, the alternative to build levees with crest elevations that were at times below the limit of wave runup was investigated and the quantities ...
