An Investigation on the Stability of Rubble Mound Breakwaters with Armour Layers of Antifer Cubes
This paper presents the results of hydraulic model tests on the stability of rubble mound breakwaters with armour layers of antifer cubes. The tests were performed using irregular waves. The effect of wave parameters and the structure slope on the stability of these artificial armour units has been investigated and the stability formulae have been derived. Finally a comparison between these for...
متن کاملArtificial Intelligence and Rubble-Mound Breakwater Stability
Breakwaters are coastal structures constructed to shelter a harbour basin from waves. There are two main types: rubble-mound breakwaters, consisting of various layers of stones or concrete pieces of different sizes (weights), making up a porous mound; and vertical breakwaters, impermeable and monolythic, habitually composed of concrete caissons. This article deals with rubble-mound breakwaters....
متن کاملMaterials performance assessment of protective layer of rubble mound breakwaters, southern coast of Iran
This study aims to examine the performance of the rock materials in the protective layer of rubble-mound breakwaters in southern Iran, from Rostami Port in Bushehr Province to Beris Port in Sistan and Baluchestan Province. Field inspections were carried out on a great number of rubble-mound breakwaters built in the Persian Gulf and Oman Sea coastal regions to study the protective layer of these...
متن کاملAdvanced Numerical Simulations on the Interaction between Waves and Rubble Mound Breakwaters
In the present article a new procedure is proposed to study the interactions between maritime breakwaters (submerged or emerged) and the waves, by integrating CAD and CFD software. The approach is meant to match closely the physical laboratory test procedure, and it is oriented at analyzing the hydrodynamic aspects of the phenomenon (overtopping, breaking, run-up, reflection, transmission) and ...
متن کاملHydrodynamic Simulations of Historic Tsunamis from the Cascadia Subduction Zone
INTRODUCTION We use new geological and hydrodynamic models to simulate the sea floor deformation and tsunami runup and inundation in Cannon Beach, Oregon (Fig. 1) produced by Cascadia subduction zone (CSZ) earthquakes. We then compare the simulated inundation with inland extent of buried sand sheets inferred to be of tsunami origin. The CSZ exhibits similarities to other subduction zones around...
