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

Frontiers 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.

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

한국해양공학회지, 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.

Wave Transmission by Overtopping

Journal 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.

Comparison of deep-water-parameter-based wave overtopping with wirewall field measurements and social media reports at Crosby (UK)

Coastal Engineering, 2022

Hazards, Vulnerability, and Risk Analysis on Wave Overtopping and Coastal Flooding in Low-Lying Coastal Areas: The Case of Costa da Caparica, Portugal

Water, 2021
Coastal areas are densely populated areas, and they have been experiencing increasing pressures as a consequence of population growth, but also because of climate change aggravation.

Influence of oblique wave attack on wave overtopping at caisson breakwaters with sea and swell conditions

Coastal Engineering, 2021
The amount of wave overtopping at coastal structures such as vertical caisson breakwaters is strongly dependent on the angle of wave attack. The reducing effects of oblique waves on wave overtopping compared to perpendicular wave attack has been studied ...

WAVE OVERTOPPING SIMULATOR TESTS IN VIET NAM [PDF]

Coastal 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.

Role of Beach Morphology in Wave Overtopping Hazard Assessment

Journal 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.

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.
