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...

Based on the open-source code DualSPHysics, a numerical model was conducted to simulate the regular wave transformation on the slope breakwater with artificial block, and the simulation results were verified according to the measured data from the physic...

In order to protect fragile shoreline and coastal assets during extreme storms, a combined floating breakwater-windbreak has been proposed to reduce both wind and wave energies in the sheltered area. The 1 km-long breakwater has a porous hull with intern...

The crest elevation of mound breakwaters is usually designed considering a tolerable mean wave overtopping discharge. However, pedestrian safety, characterized by the overtopping layer thickness (OLT) and the overtopping flow velocity (OFV), is becoming ...

The objective of this research is to analyze the interaction of the incident wave train with a mound breakwater (specifically, dissipation in the armor layer) and to quantify the performance of the structure built with different types and sizes of armor ...

Mound breakwaters with significant overtopping rates in depth-limited conditions are common in practice due to social concern about the visual impact of coastal structures and sea level rise due to climatic change. For overtopped mound breakwaters, the h...

In coastal engineering, empirical formulas grounded on experimental works regarding the stability of breakwaters have been developed. In recent years, soft computing tools such as artificial neural networks and fuzzy models have started to be employed to...

Compared to the hydrostatic hydrodynamic model, the non-hydrostatic hydrodynamic model can accurately simulate flows that feature vertical accelerations. The model?s low computational efficiency severely restricts its wider application. This paper propos...
