Garrido, J. Corporate name TU Delft Project Clash Date 2004-11-01 Abstract 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 typical for laboratory measurements and to identify possible causes for differences in results, identical tests will be carried out in the two laboratories (LWI and UPLVC). This report describes the laboratory facilities at LWI and UPVLC and the results of LWI and UPVLC parametric tests as well as the UPVLC and LWI reproduction of storms and tests with wind conditions. The results of these tests will already give an indication for (i) scale effects to be expected; (ii) differences of various types of measurement techniques; (iii) model effects; (iv) relative importance of analysis methods and (v) wind effects; and (vi) magnitude of forces on persons induced by overtopping waves (hazards).
