A numerical study was performed in the present work about an Overtopping Device Wave Energy Converter (OTD-WEC) with one and two ramps incorporated a real breakwater. The Constructal Design method applied to evaluate effects on average dimensionless overtopping flow of degrees freedom device ramps. In addition, comparison carried out among different geometry configurations OTD-WEC determine whi...

Numerous landslide dams have been induced in recent years as a result of frequent earthquakes and extreme climate hazards. Landslide present serious threats to lives properties downstream due potentially breaching floods from the impounded lakes. To investigate factors influencing stability dams, large database has established based on an in-depth investigation 1,737 dam cases. The effects trig...
