Pages : 32
Book Description
The Madsen and White (1976) analytical model of wave transmission through permeable breakwaters is combined with a wave transmission by overtopping formula to provide a method of predicting wave transmission coefficients for permeable breakwaters. Comparison of this combined prediction technique with physical model laboratory tests shows that the technique is useful for estimating transmission coefficients for design. A computer program was found the most convenient method of making predictions. The computer program and an example showing program use are included in an Appendix. (Author).
Two-dimensional Tests of Wave Transmission and Reflection Characteristics of Laboratory Breakwaters

Book Description
Monochromatic and irregular wave transmission and reflection measurements were made for various subaerial and submerged breakwater cross sections. These two-dimensional laboratory tests included smooth impermeable breakwaters, rubble-mound breakwaters, and breakwaters armored with dolos unit. Wave transmission by overtopping was found to be related to breakwater freeboard wave runup, and breakwater crest width; a method of estimating transmission by overtopping coefficients is presented. The Madsen and White (1976) numerical procedure was found to be an important tool for predicting the amount of transmission through permeable breakwaters. Suggested procedures for estimating transmission coefficients have been incorporated into the computer programs OVER and MADSEN (included as appendixes) and these programs may be used to predict wave transmission coefficients for nonbreaking, breaking, monochromatic, and irregular wave conditions.

Wave Transmission by Overtopping
Author: Ralph Herbert CrossPublisher:
ISBN:
Category : Breakwaters
Languages : en
Pages : 37
Book Description
The report presents a theory for ocean wave transmission past breakwaters by overtopping, based on an evaluation of the energy content of the overtopping water. While several coefficients are subject to further investigation, the data shows that the general form of the equations developed is correct. Comparison of an intermediate theoretical result predicting the volume of overtopping water with published data again shows reasonable agreement. An envelope curve for the transmission coefficient, based on all available data, gives a simple tool for preliminary design estimates of the transmission coefficient. (Author).
