The choice of the values of the friction parameters may strongly influence the numerical modeling of the interaction between waves and porous media. Here, an assessment of such an influence is carried out using the OpenFOAM solver IhFoamV1 to simulate th...

This paper experimentally explored the influence of the wave spectrum shape variation on breakwater design. The energy spectrum function generally considered for the design of coastal structures is the JONSWAP spectrum. The laboratory results were theref...

Laboratory experiments were performed in the wave flume of the Laboratorio di Idraulica e Costruzioni Marittime of the Università Politecnica delle Marche (Ancona, Italy) to study the hydrodynamic performance of coastal protection structures made of a ne...

The correct calculation of forces and moments caused by wave action over crown wall structures is critical for their design. There are several existing equations for this, some of which are sanctioned in practice as it is the case for Jensen (1984) and B...

In this study, a Level III reliability design of an armor block of rubble mound breakwater was developed using the optimized probabilistic wave height model for the Korean marine environment and Van der Meer equation. To demonstrate what distinguishes th...

This paper aims to evaluate the structural strength of unreinforced concrete armor units (CAU), named Cubipod®, used on rubble-mound breakwaters and coastal structures, through a numerical methodology using the combined finite?discrete element method (FD...

The effects of submerged berms in attenuating the momentary liquefaction beneath rubble mound breakwaters under regular waves were investigated in a recent study. The present work aims to investigate the momentary liquefaction probabilities around and be...

The term ?damage? in rubble mound breakwaters is usually related to the foremost failure mode of this kind of coastal structures: their hydraulic instability. The characterization of the breakwater response against wave action was and will be the goal of...

Damage in rubble mound breakwaters has been addressed for more than 80 years and, as reported in ?Part I: Historical review of damage models?, a considerable number of hydraulic instability models have been proposed up to date. Most of them were develope...
