Franco, L. (author)Italy is often considered as a mother country of vertical breakwaters for harbour protection, since they have been widely used all along our coasts long since. An updated location map is given in fig. 1, which also shows the position of the directional wave recording stations of the existing Italian network. The most common vertical breakwaters...report 1992

Burcharth, H.F. (author)This rapport includes two main topics for designing a rubble mound breakwater: 1. Geometrical properties and durability of rock materials 2. Structural integrity of concrete armour units Included in this rapport are some design diagrams for Dolos of different waist ratios.report 1992

Magoon, O.T. (author), Baird, W.F. (author)The design and construction of structures for the coast lines of the world must consider numerous forces and factors. These include the purpose of the structure, the design waves, the design wave climate, the material of which the structure is to be built, foundation conditions, earthquakes, tsunamis, availability of construction and maintenance...report 1992

Goda, Y. (author)The historical development of upright breakwaters in Japan is briefly reviewed as an introduction. Various wave pressure formulas for vertical walls are discussed, and then the design formulas currently employed in Japan are presented with an example of calculation. Several design factors are also discussed.report 1992

Liberatore, G. (author)Detached (or "offshore") breakwaters of emerging type are a common and effective approach for beach protection, particularly for areas with small tidal oscillations. This kind of breakwaters aims at acting on sediment transport by decreasing the transport capacity of long-shore currents, thus locally causing settlement of sediments. Unlike...report 1992

Sawaragi, T. (author)In this paper, the hydraulic functions and stability of detached breakwaters and submerged breakwaters with wide crown widths are discussed. The following subjects with regard to detached and submerged breakwaters are discussed: - Function of detached breakwaters in controlling waves and wave-induced currents - Function of detached breakwaters...report 1992

Van Gent, M.R.A. (author)In the MAST-G6-S program numerical models will be developed for the description of wave motion on and in coastal structures. The most accurate one will probably be the SKYLLA model. That model uses the two-dimensional Navier-Stokes equations. For a description, see Broekens and Petit (1991). After it has been developed for structures with an...report 1992

Zeidler, B. (author), Tarnowska, M. (author), Prusak, Z. (author), Basinksi, T. (author)The description of the transformation of shore in larger scales, i.e. the far-field effects, is summarized in Chapter 2 while the near-field mechanisms, encompassing different overall and local failure modes, stability and performance are dealt with in Chapter 3. Both are foliowed by Chapters 4 and 5 with design computations and examples,...report 1992

Van Gent, M.R.A. (author)For the description of porous flow the Forchheimer equation is normally used. Several formulae have been proposed for the coefficients Cl and c2 from this equation. All these formulae are based on experiments. Those coefficients represent the friction and resistance caused by the porous medium. The Forchheimer equation is a somewhat semi...report 1992

Van der Meer, J.W. (author)Dit verslag beschrijft de stabiliteit van een aantal stortsteenkonstrukties die afwijkt van een recht doorgaand talud zonder overslag . De konstrukties zijn dammen met een lage kruin, geknikte stortsteen taluds en stortsteen taluds met een glad boventalud. Uitgangspunt daarbij zijn de resultaten van M 1983 deel I (twee stabiliteitsformules) en...report 1990

Carver, R.D. (author), Heimbauch, M.S. (author)The purpose of the model investigation reported herein was to obtain design information for stone and dolos armor used on breakwater heads and subjected to breaking waves. More specifically, it was desired to determine the minimum weight of individual armor units (with given specific weights) required for stability as a function of sea-side...report 1989
