DEVELOPMENT OF NEW WAVE OVERTOPPING MODELS FOR SEAWALLS WITH WAVE ABSORBING BLOCKS AND SLOPED SEAWALLS

Abstract

 This research verified previous wave overtopping models and proposed a new model for the sloped seawalls and the seawalls with wave absorbing blocks. For this purpose, we used the experimental results by Goda et al.(1975) and Tamada et al.(2002), and numerical analysis with CADMAS-SURF/2D. The proposed models which corrected some problems was able to reproduce the experimental results.
