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.

Book Description
Rates of wave overtopping of structures can be predicted by means of an equation presented in the Shore Protection Manual (SPM) (eg. 7-6, U.S. Army, Corps of Engineers, Coastal Engineering Research Center, 1975; Weggel, 1976). Implicit in the use of this equation is the assumption of monochromatic waves; i.e., waves of uniform height and period. A question is given on what would the overtopping rate be fore irregular wave conditions having a significant height equal to the height of the monochromatic wave used in the SPM equation. An answer is given: the irregular wave conditions are assumed to cause the runup to have a Rayleigh distribution of the type commonly associated with wave heights. The runup with a Rayleigh distribution is used in the SPM's wave overtopping equation to predict average overtopping rates for irregular waves having a particular significant height. Example problems are given to illustrate how this technique can be used to predict overtopping rates for irregular wave conditions. A table, which can be used to calculate the irregular overtopping rate using the monochromatic rate for equivalent wave conditions is also given.

Book Description
Random waves are the most important constituent of the sea environment. They make the design of maritime structures quite different from that of structures on land. In this book, the concept of randomness in waves for the design of breakwaters, seawalls, and harbor structures is fully explored for easy comprehension by practicing engineers. Theoretical aspects are also discussed in detail for further studies by graduate students and researchers. Several additions have been made to this second edition, including a new chapter on extreme wave statistics.

Book Description
Modern design of berm breakwaters began about thirty years ago. However, to date, there has been a lack of a well-established, formal design methodology on berm breakwaters. The authors Dr Jentsje van der Meer and Sigurdur Sigurdarson combine over 40 years of collective experience working with breakwaters to put forward a design framework in Design and Construction of Berm Breakwaters; covering the science and design practices of berm breakwater structures. The original design consisted of mass armoured berms that reshaped into statically stable S-shaped slopes. The design was adopted in Iceland and eventually led to a development with more stable structures by using available rock sizes, large rock, and more rock gradings than just 'small rock (core)' and 'large rock (berm)'. This more stable and only partly reshaping structure is called the Icelandic-type berm breakwater.Written for researchers and practitioners, the volume consists of chapters on geometrical designs of the berm breakwater cross-section, including berm reshaping and wave overtopping, quarry and project management, as well as blasting and sorting techniques, designs for various wave conditions and available rock classes, and case studies of already constructed berm breakwaters.
