Wave overtopping predictions using an advanced machine learning technique
Coastal Engineering, 2021Abstract Coastal structures are often designed to a maximum allowable wave overtopping discharge, hence accurate prediction of the amount of wave overtopping is an important issue. Both empirical formulae and neural networks are among the commonly used prediction tools.

Wave overtopping at coastal structures: prediction tools and related hazard analysis
Journal of Cleaner Production, 2007Abstract Safe use of low lying and densely populated coastal regions depends critically on the performance of coastal structures in defending these areas against storm surges, wave attack, flooding and erosion. Continuing sea level rise and climate change (storms are becoming rougher) emphasise the need for reliable and robust predictions as higher ...

Urban coastal flood prediction: Integrating wave overtopping, flood defenses and drainage
Coastal Engineering, 2014Abstract Flood extent field observations collected following a wave overtopping event are used to evaluate the accuracy of two urban flood prediction models: a static (‘bathtub’) model that simply compares water level to land elevation, and a hydrodynamic model that resolves embayment dynamics, overland flow, concrete flood walls, and drainage into ...

Violent Wave Overtopping - Extension of Prediction Method to Broken Waves
Coastal Structures 2003, 2004Well-verified guidance exists for the prediction of wave overtopping over vertical walls, including breaking/impulsive and non-breaking/pulsating wave attack. For broken waves only Goda’s (1975) design charts give guidance, and only for sea steepnesses.

Accounting for random wave run-up in overtopping predictions
Proceedings of the Institution of Civil Engineers - Maritime Engineering, 2004The paper describes a method for predicting the rates of overtopping of seawalls by random waves. The procedure links the overtopping rate to information on wave run-up. Output from the procedure is compared with physical model data not used in its original calibration, and with the results from two other methods commonly employed for predicting ...

Estimation and Prediction of Typhoons and Wave Overtopping in Qingdao, China
Journal of Ocean University of China, 2020This study aims to estimate and predict the impact of climate change on typhoons and wave overtopping during typhoon progresses in Qingdao, China. The SWAN wave model is used to simulate wave elements. The scale coefficients of wave overtopping are estimated using an empirical prediction formula.

Wave Overtopping Prediction for Sloping Coastal Structures with Overspill Basins at the Crest
Coastal Structures and Solutions to Coastal Disasters 2015, 2017This paper describes a review and analysis of available hydraulic model tests on overspill basins at the crest of sloping structures. Based on an analysis of these tests, further model tests were performed in the wave flume of Ghent University (Belgium) to determine the wave overtopping rate for smooth impermeable sloping structures with various sized ...

Prediction of Irregular Wave Overtopping
2023Rates of wave overtopping of structures can be predicted by means of an equation presented in the Shore Protection Manual (SPM)(eg. 7-6, U.S. Army, Corps of Engineers, Coastal Engineering Research Center, 1975; Weggel, 1976). Implicit in the use of this equation is the assumption of monochromatic waves; i.e., waves of uniform height and period.
