Sea dikes breaching initiated by breaking wave impacts - Preliminary computational model

Sea dikes are of crucial importance in the defence systems of low-lying coastal areas in Germany as well as in other countries such as The Netherlands and Denmark. Breaches of sea dikes due to storm surges are regarded as the main cause of flood disasters, so that a reliable prediction of both breach initiation, breach formation and breach...

Sea dikes breaching initiated by breaking wave impacts - State of the art

Sea dikes are of crucial importance in the defence systems of low-lying coastal areas in countries such as Germany, The Netherlands or Denmark, etc. Breaches of sea dikes induced by storm surges are regarded as the main cause of coastal flood disasters. Therefore a reliable prediction of both initial conditions for the breach occurrence and the...
