Influence of oblique wave attack on wave overtopping at caisson breakwaters with sea and swell conditions

Wave Reflection at Submerged Breakwaters

Several types of structures are used in Coastal Engineering with the aim of preventing shoreline erosion, such as groynes, detached breakwaters, submerged breakwaters, etc. Submerged breakwaters have the advantage of their minimal visual impact, which has made them ever more popular (Chang & Liou, 2007). When the incoming waves impinge on a submerged breakwater, a process of energy transformati...

Numerical Simulation of Wave Overtopping Over Composite Berm Breakwater

Breakwaters have changed a lot during their design history. Overtopping is an important parameter that its evaluation and reduction has always been noticed. In this study, the wave overtopping of composite berm breakwater as a new conceptual structure has been investigated numerical modeling was performed using FLOW-3D software. Then, based on  a laboratory model conducted by Losada et al, cali...

Wave Overtopping over Sea Dikes and Impact Forces on Storm Walls

Experimental investigation of wave parameters effect on damage of the berm reshaped seawall under irregular wave attack

This paper presents an experimental study the influence of wave parameter on the damage of reshaping seawall, model tests have been performed in several water level conditions. The experiments of physical modeling of this research have been done in the flume of the Soil Conservation and Watershed Management Research Institute (SCWMRI). The waves applied to the structure model are irregular and ...

مدلسازی عددی روگذری موج از موجشکن توده سنگی با در نظر گرفتن اثر تخلخل

Wave overtopping on the breakwaters is an important issue in breakwaters’ design. Most of the previous studies focused on experimental researches and numerical modeling of irregular wave overtopping particularly on porous breakwaters has not been studied. In the present study, the verification between experimental studies and numerical modeling of irregular waves overtopping on the porous...
