Overtopping flow velocity (OFV) and overtopping layer thickness (OTL) are essential parameters in breakwater design. Several empirical equations to predict these parameters are available in many works of literature, but most of the equations were derived...

The mean sea level rising predicted for this century and the following centuries will make necessary to protect most of the human properties located on the coast. One of the alternatives is the construction of slope breakwaters along hundreds of kilomete...

The load resistance factor according to the target reliability level was proposed using 16 vertical breakwaters constructed along the coast of Korea. Limit state functions for sliding and overturning limit states were defined. Reliability analysis was pe...
