Spatial distribution of overtopping

The scope of this research is to find an empirical formula to describe the distribution of wave overtopping in the region behind the crest. A physical model was set up in which irregular waves were generated. In order to find a formula which adequately describes the test observations, the influence of several parameters has been analysed. The...

Measuring the degree of street vitality in excavated towns: How can macro and micro spatial analyses tools contribute to understandings on the spatial organization of urban life in Pompeii?
