Numerical investigation of the effects of roughness, a berm and oblique waves on wave overtopping processes at dikes

Applied Ocean Research, 2021
The mean overtopping discharge and the overtopping flow parameters related to individual overtopping events are often used to characterize the wave overtopping processes at dikes.

Effect of Variations in Water Level and Wave Steepness on the Robustness of Wave Overtopping Estimation

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 ...

Analysis of Factors Influencing Wave Overtopping Discharge from Breakwater Based on an MIV-BP Estimation Model

Water, 2022
Aiming at the problem of calculating the overtopping of single-slope breakwaters, a mean impact value-backpropagation (MIV-BP) estimation model for predicting overtopping was established.

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.

Formulating wave overtopping at vertical and sloping structures with shallow foreshores using deep-water wave characteristics

, 2021
The state-of-the-art formulas for mean wave overtopping (q) assessment typically require wave conditions at the toe of the structure as input.

Wave overtopping at vertical structures: Comparison of different formulas

, 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.

Spatial and Temporal Variation in Wave Overtopping Across a Coastal Structure Based on One Year of Field Observations

Journal of Marine Science and Engineering
Coastal managers worldwide must prepare for changes in annual wave overtopping events due to climate change and sea-level rise. Research often assesses overtopping discharges by extreme events at a sea wall crest, typically using data from physical ...

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 ...

Improved prediction of wave overtopping rates at vertical seawalls with recurve retrofitting

Ocean Engineering
This study investigates the reduction in overtopping discharge along a vertical seawall through the implementation of a recurve retrofitting. A comprehensive set of physical modelling experiments were undertaken in a laboratory-scale wave flume at the ...
