Kortenhaus, A. (author)This report describes the flood defence structures of the pilot site German Bight Coast and the overall probability of failure of all flood defences in the area. First, the flood prone area is briefly described as follows: ? the flood prone area ? the failures observed in the past ? an overview of all defence structures ? the flood defence...report 2009

Kortenhaus, A. (author)This report describes individual flood defence structures of all pilot sites in FLOODsite. For each of the 10 pilot sites the following details are described: Ø the flood prone area Ø the failures observed in the past Ø an overview of all defence structures Ø the flood defence structures in detail together with their potential failure modesThe...report 2009

Kortenhaus, A. (author)This report reviews previous investigations on hydraulic loading conditions for different types of flood defence structures such as sea dikes, dunes, beaches and seawalls. For each of these structures the physical processes involved are discussed in some detail and methods are given to either predict relevant input parameters for failure modes...report 2007

Kortenhaus, A. (author), Van der Meer, J. (author), Burcharth, H.F. (author), Geeraerts, J. (author), Pullen, T. (author), Ingram, D. (author), Troch, P. (author)CLASH is concentrating on investigations of wave overtopping for different structures in prototype and in laboratory. The model investigations have focussed on wave overtopping and the comparison of overtopping results from small-scale model tests and prototype measurements. Possible differences in the results from small-scale tests and...report 2005

Kortenhaus, A. (author), Medina, J. (author), González-Escrivá, J. (author), Garrido, J. (author)Within WP4 laboratory investigations for the Zeebrugge rubble mound breakwater have started in the wave flume of Leichtweiß-Institute for Hydraulic Engineering of the Technical University of Braunschweig (hereafter LWI) and in the wave flume of the Universidad Politécnica de Valencia (hereafter UPVLC). In order to check any influence that is...report 2004
