Book Description
Problems occurring on coastal structures related to wave runup and overtopping are identified and categorized. Three general problem areas include: wave runup and overtopping of breakwaters and jetties causing excessive wave action on the leeside, wave runup and overtopping of seawalls and bulkheads causing either flooding or erosion or both behind the structures, and wave runup and overtopping of revetments jeopardizing the integrity or possibly causing failure of the structure. A number of approaches to reducing wave runup and overtopping of coastal structures is presented. Plans to use laboratory model tests to quantify and refine the most promising approaches are discussed. Keywords: Coastal engineering; Structural engineering; Breakwaters; Revetments; Seawalls; Wave overtopping; Water wave runup. (edc).

Wave Overtopping Equation

Book Description
Some available data on wave overtopping by monochromatic waves were reevaluated before publication of the Shore Protection Manual (U.S. Army, Corps of Engineers, Coastal Engineering Research Center, 1973). The analysis of earlier data was made in order to summarize and present it in a more readily usable form. This paper provides empirical equations which can be used to predict overtopping rates for various structure slopes and structure types if accurate predictions of runup are available.
