A comparison is made of total run-up of breakers on beaches predicted by present theory and observed in channel experiments. The inviscid theory is shown to predict the observed dependence of run-up on bore strength, but not that on beach slope. A tentative, simple friction correction proposed by Le Mehaute brings theory and experiment into much better

Wave Run-Up and Wave Forces on a Truncated Cylinder
Offshore Technology Conference, 1990Abstract The results of a small scale experimental study to investigate the wave run-up and wave forces on a truncated cylinder, representing a single TLP leg, are presented. The investigation examines the wave run-up and in-line wave force conditions resulting from both regular and random waves.

Wave Run-Up on Roughened and Permeable Slopes
Transactions of the American Society of Civil Engineers, 1958Laboratory tests determining run-up on various beach slopes as result of wave action are described; curves relating run-up to wave steepness, slope roughness, and slope permeability are presented; test facilities and procedure detailed.

The run-up of N -waves on sloping beaches
Proceedings of the Royal Society of London. Series A: Mathematical and Physical Sciences, 1994Abstract Anecdotal reports of tsunamis climbing up coastlines have often described the shoreline receding significantly before the tsunami waves run-up on the beach. These waves are caused by tsunamigenic earthquakes close to the shoreline, when the generated wave does not have sufficient propagation distance to evolve into leading ...

Abstract : While investigating the Tsunami wave project, a numerical method was devised to solve the initial boundary value problem for the equations of the non-linear shallow water theory. The case of one horizontal dimension was considered in a domain bounded by a shore at one end, with the motion of the shoreline taken into account.

A numerical study of the motion of a wave running up a beach
Acta Mechanica Sinica, 1988The running up of water onto beaches is of great significance in coastal engineering. Theoretical and experimental studies in this field can be found in [1]–[7]. Recently, some numerical methods associated with this problem have appeared [4]–[7]. When the wave climbs up the inclined sea shore, there are moving boundaries which are unknown in advance ...

Wave Run‐up on sloping structures
Eos, Transactions American Geophysical Union, 1953Relationships have been developed from laboratory experiments which show the effect of side slope, wave steepness (H/L), relative depth (d/L), and the structure porosity on wave run‐up. Maximum wave run‐up occurs, for the range of angles examined, at approximately 30°.

WAVE REFLECTION AND WAVE RUN-UP AT RUBBLE MOUND BREAKWATERS
Coastal Engineering 2006, 2007Wave reflection and wave run-up at rubble mound breakwaters with steep front slope were investigated in large scale model tests. The two-way dependency of wave run-up and wave reflection and the governing hydraulic parameters for wave reflection were investigated.

Reliability analysis of wave run-up
2009Assessing the run-up arising from ocean waves as they reach a coastal or offshore structure is an important aspect of engineering projects. By combining formulations for calculating the run-up of regular waves with wave statistical descriptions, a procedure is implemented to assess wave run-up in random sea conditions. This procedure uses the First and

Calculation of Wave Run-up on Slopes
Civil Engineering in the Oceans VI, 2005In this paper, a two-layer model of a stream of water wave body on a sloping bed presented. In this model, the velocity of upper layer has forward direction, but the lower one has backward direction. The effect of lower layer on upper layer is defined with a partial coefficient.
