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

The Decline of a Caldera‐Filling Glacier at Volcán Sollipulli, Chile
Journal of Geophysical Research: Earth Surface, Volume 131, Issue 6, June 2026.Abstract Southern Andean glaciers have undergone fast retreat in recent decades. This results in reduced freshwater storage, contribution to sea‐level rise, and locally to the formation of glacial lakes, that may pose the risk of glacial lake outburst floods (GLOFs).

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

Experimental Update of the Overtopping Model Used for the Wave Dragon Wave Energy Converter
Energies, 2013 An overtopping model specifically suited for Wave Dragon is needed in order to improve the reliability of its performance estimates. The model shall be comprehensive of all relevant physical processes that affect overtopping and flexible to adapt to any ...

Water Resources Research, Volume 62, Issue 6, June 2026.Abstract Compound flooding involves the interaction of multiple flood processes (e.g., coastal, fluvial, and pluvial) and is modulated by several factors (e.g., weather, climate, topobathy, morphology, time‐lag). In tropical and subtropical regions globally, Tropical Cyclones (TCs) are a primary cause of compound flooding as they generate substantial ...

Water Resources Research, Volume 62, Issue 6, June 2026.Abstract Landslides can block rivers and create natural dams that pose significant flooding hazards to upstream and downstream. Variations in dam materials and geometries play a critical role in controlling breach initiation and failure processes, thereby complicating failure assessment.

Partial Entrance Restriction as a Potential Tidal Flood Mitigation Strategy in a Large Urban Estuary
Journal of Flood Risk Management, Volume 19, Issue 2, June 2026.ABSTRACT Tidal flooding in estuaries is expected to worsen as sea‐level rise (SLR) continues to accelerate and increases storm surge height. Conventional structural defences are often unsustainable, while nature‐based solutions like managed realignment require extensive land to be repurposed.
