Nonlinear run-ups of regular waves on sloping structures [PDF]
Natural Hazards and Earth System Sciences, 2012 For coastal risk mapping, it is extremely important to accurately predict wave run-ups since they influence overtopping calculations; however, nonlinear run-ups of regular waves on sloping structures are still not accurately modeled.

Prediction Formula of Wave Overtopping Discharge Including Wave Runup
Journal of Japan Society of Civil Engineers, Ser. B2 (Coastal Engineering), 2010 The height of seawall is determined based on allowable wave overtopping rate or wave runup height for the design of surge and wave prevention facilities. Although a design method based on wave overtopping rate takes into account of wave randomness, a design method based on wave runup height does not consider the wave randomness but uses equations and ...

WALOWA (wave loads on walls) : large-scale experiments in the delta flume [PDF]
, 2017 Overtopping wave loads on vertical structures on top of a dike have been investigated in several small scale experiments in the past. A large-scale validation for a mild foreshore situation is still missing.

Influence of convex and concave curvatures in a coastal dike line on wave run-up [PDF]
, 2019 Due to climatic change and the increased usage of coastal areas, there is an increasing risk of dike failures along the coasts worldwide. Wave run-up plays a key role in the planning and design of a coastal structure.

On the Effects of Geometry Control on the Performance of Overtopping Wave Energy Converters
Energies, 2011 Overtopping wave energy converters (OWECs) are designed to extract energy from ocean waves based on wave overtopping into a reservoir, which is emptied into the ocean through a set of low-head turbines, and typically feature a low crest freeboard and a ...

An 11-year validation of wave-surge modelling in the Irish Sea, using a nested POLCOMS-WAM modelling system [PDF]
, 2010 In the future it is believed that extreme coastal flooding events will increase (in frequency and intensity) as a result of climate change. We are investigating the flood risks in the eastern Irish Sea posed by extreme storm events.
