An anti-slide pile is a common landslide control measure. Compared with the full-length pile whose top extends to the ground, the buried pile is more optimal in internal force distribution, saves material and has remarkable economic benefits. At present,...

In this paper, the ditching performance of a seaplane model on calm water and a uniform water current coupled with wind was numerically investigated. The overset grid technique was applied to treat the large amplitude of the body motions of the seaplane ...

Sediment barriers are used on construction sites to protect downstream waterbodies from the impacts of sediment-laden stormwater runoff. Although ubiquitous on construction sites, many sediment barrier practices lack performance-based testing to determin...

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...

Wave overtopping, mainly caused by growing coastal erosion processes, directly affects populations, causing coastal flooding and potential damages. This work aims to develop the relationship between overtopping phenomena and their impact costs through an...

Wave overtopping is a critical parameter in the design of coastal defense structures. Nowadays, several empirical formulations based on small-scale experiments are available in the literature to predict the mean overtopping discharge at dikes on shallow ...

A series of physical model tests were performed to investigate the wave propagation, pressure, and wave overtopping processes for vertical and sloped seawalls on the reef flat. For both regular and irregular waves, the effects of incident wave height, wa...
