WAVE OVERTOPPING AT MALECÃ’N TRADICIONAL, LA HABANA, CUBA [PDF]

Coastal Engineering Proceedings, 2017
With the aim of redesigning the geometry of the Malecòn, a vertical face seawall protecting the northern waterfront of the city of La Habana, a wide experimental campaign was carried out. The latter was performed in the frame of a collaboration between the Government of the isle of Cuba and the CUGRI consortium, an Italian institution which joins the ...

Three‐dimensional gravity current interactions with oblique slopes: Deflection, reflection and combined‐flow behaviours

Sedimentology, Volume 72, Issue 7, Page 2121-2159, December 2025.
ABSTRACT Gravity currents interacting with planar slopes have been thought to always ‘reflect’ a component of flow orthogonal to the slope irrespective of the flow incidence angle. Incoming flows are argued to undergo gravitational collapse, and generate internal waves, that propagate perpendicular to the bounding slope.

Sedimentology and geomorphology of tufa barrages on rock coast shore platforms

Sedimentology, Volume 72, Issue 7, Page 2173-2200, December 2025.
ABSTRACT Despite tufa deposits being widely distributed and increasingly recognised globally on rock coasts, their distribution in the tidal frame and geomorphology is poorly understood. The distribution, sedimentology and geomorphology of tufa barrages on supratidal rock coasts are assessed and their controls established.

Co-located wave and offshore wind farms: A preliminary approach to the shadow effect [PDF]

, 2014
In recent years, with the consolidation of offshore wind technology and the progress carried out for wave energy technology, the option of combine both technologies has arisen.

VERTICAL DISTRIBUTION OF WAVE OVERTOPPING FOR DESIGN OF MULTI LEVEL OVERTOPPING BASED WAVE ENERGY CONVERTERS

Coastal Engineering 2006, 2007
This paper presents an expression describing the vertical distribution of overtopping, the experimental work leading to this, as well as the use of the expression for numerical optimization of the geometrical layout of the multi level overtopping based wave energy converter Seawave Slot-cone Generator.

Infra‐culture and infrastructures: Relational placemaking at the coast

Transactions of the Institute of British Geographers, Volume 50, Issue 4, December 2025.
Short Abstract This article explores the concept of infra‐culture, emphasising how cultural practices and material interactions influence the development of physical infrastructures over time. Using the Alde and Ore estuary in eastern England as a case study now increasingly disrupted by climate change, it examines the role of infra‐culture in shaping ...

EVALUATION OF MEAN WAVE OVERTOPPING AND MAXIMUM INDIVIDUAL WAVE OVERTOPPING ON ROCK REVETMENT

Jurnal Teknologi (Sciences & Engineering)
An accurate estimation of wave overtopping discharge on rock revetment is important to protect coastal areas from possible hazards. The mean discharge value is often used in the coastal structural design. However, the anticipated impact of the maximum volume of overtopping by individual waves is expected to be significant in wave overtopping ...

Controls on carbonate island formation and evolution: South Joulter Cay, Great Bahama Bank

The Depositional Record, Volume 11, Issue 5, Page 1354-1375, November 2025.
The evolution of South Joulter Cay occurs in three stages: linear ridges shaped by waves and longshore currents, arcuate ridges influenced by tidal currents and channels, and cuspate ridges formed by variable wind and wave directions. These processes are driven by climatic and oceanographic factors.

Empirical Predictions on Wave Overtopping for Overtopping Wave Energy Converters: A Systematic Review

Processes
Over the past three decades, the development and testing of various overtopping wave energy converters (OWECs) have highlighted the importance of accurate wave run-up and overtopping predictions on those devices. This study systematically reviews the empirical formulas traditionally used for predicting overtopping across different types of breakwaters ...

An Operational Flood Risk Assessment System for Better Resilience Against Rain‐Induced Impacts Under Climate Change in Hong Kong

Meteorological Applications, Volume 32, Issue 6, November/December 2025.
Flood Risk Assessment System (FRAS) was developed to enhance the community’s resilience in coping with extreme weather. The key technique adopted by FRAS is the use of a district‐scale ‘rainfall‐flooding impact’ statistical model, developed with historical flood and rainfall records.
