Earthquake Engineering &Structural Dynamics, Volume 55, Issue 11, Page 2948-2965, September 2026.ABSTRACT Disasters exacerbated by climate change have prompted adaptation measures, including seawall heightening, which is an effective approach to protecting coastal areas. However, the combined effect of rising sea levels and tsunamis can create a compound coastal hazard, in which long‐term sea level rise amplifies the impact of tsunamis.

Numerical and Experimental Investigation of Wave Overtopping of Barriers [PDF]
Water, 2020 We present a study of wave overtopping of barriers. The phenomenon of the wave overtopping over emerged structures is reproduced both numerically and experimentally. The numerical simulations are carried out by a numerical scheme for three-dimensional free-surface flows, which is based on the solution of the Navier–Stokes equations in a novel integral ...

Journal of Marine Science and Engineering, 2023 Overtopping flow velocity (OFV) and overtopping layer thickness (OTL) are essential parameters in breakwater design. Several empirical equations to predict these parameters are available in many works of literature, but most of the equations were derived

Direct Policy Search for a Risk‐Based Levee Design Framework With Scenario Reduction
Journal of Flood Risk Management, Volume 19, Issue 3, September 2026.ABSTRACT Risk‐based management of coastal flood risk using realistic, process‐based models poses computational challenges, particularly when addressing uncertainties like sea‐level rise. This study explores the use of direct policy search (DPS) as a state‐dependent, adaptive decision‐making approach for upgrading levee systems.

Journal of Korean navigation and port research, 2006 Waves progressing into the coastal area can be amplified, swashed and overtopped by a wave overtopping control structure, and it converts the kinetic energy of the waves to the potential energy with a hydraulic head above the mean sea level by conserving the overflow in a reservoir.

Impact of an extreme storm event on a multiple intertidal barred coastal system
Earth Surface Processes and Landforms, Volume 51, Issue 8, August 2026.Extreme storms do not necessarily cause extreme coastal erosion. Integrated DGPS surveys and SWAN nearshore wave modelling reveal that Storm Barra's peak coincided with a low‐tide stage, allowing multiple intertidal bars (MITBs) to dissipate incoming wave energy before it reached Dundrum Bay's shoreline, highlighting the combined role of tidal stage ...

Journal 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

Experimental study on multi-level overtopping wave energy convertor under regular wave conditions
International Journal of Naval Architecture and Ocean Engineering, 2018 A multi-level overtopping wave energy converter was designed according to the large tidal range and small wave heights in China. It consists of two reservoirs with sloping walls at different levels.
