De Rouck, J. (author), Geeraerts, J. (author), Troch, P. (author), Kortenhaus, A. (author), Pullen, T. (author), Franco, L. (author)It is proven that wave run up on rough slopes is underestimated in small scale model tests due to scale / model effects. Given this fact, the same effects are suspected to be present for wave overtopping. A thorough comparison between prototype measurements of wave overtopping at three different coastal structures and scale model tests of these...report 2005

Geeraerts, J. (author), De Rouck, J. (author)Within the framework of the CLASH-white spot tests, wave overtopping tests on a smooth sloping structure have been performed at UGent. 3 different geometries have been tested during these tests 1) simple smooth dike 2) simple smooth dike with a small vertical part (same crest level as geometry 1) 3) simple smooth dike with a small vertical part...report 2005

Ingram, D.M. (author), Causon, D.M. (author), Gao, F. (author), Mingham, C.G. (author), Troch, P. (author), Li, T. (author), De Rouck, J. (author)The main objective of Workpackage 5 is to use numerical simulation of wave overtopping in order to solve the problem of suspected scale effects. A second, related, objective is to improve existing codes in such a way as they are able to simulate wave overtopping in a reliable way. The final, single, objective is to numerically model long waves...report 2004
