Damage on rock slopes under wave attack

The aim of this study is the particularisation of the accuracy margins for the determination of the damage level in the experimental plan proposed by Remon Kik at his thesis for the study of Notional Permeability of breakwaters “The experimental research of the permeability factor P”. The evaluation of the proposed technique took place by means...

A comparison of overtopping behaviour over a permeable and impermeable crest: An insight into overtopping discharges and intensities

The purpose of this report is to investigate the differences in overtopping characteristics over the crest of a rubble mound breakwater when the crest is made either impermeable or permeable. Among numerous characteristics that are effected by a modification in the permeability of the crest, this report looks specifically into three separate...
