Based on a database of laboratory data on wave overtopping (around 10,000 tests) a neural network technique is used for producing a generic prediction method. In the first database (around 7,000 tests) the following white spots were detected where additional tests could improve the generic prediction method. This report deals with the laboratory...

Tests have been performed with low steepness and reshaping breakwaters at Ghent University and Aalborg University respectively. The reshaping breakwater is a type of breakwater where the information on overtopping is very limited. The additional tests are described in the following four reports: .. D24 – Part A: Effect of obliqueness, short...

Within WP4.2 laboratory investigations for the Ostia rubble mound breakwater are performed in the wave flume of Ghent University (later UGent) and in the wave basin of Flanders Hydraulics (hereafter FCFH). In order to check any influence that is typical for laboratory measurements and to identify possible causes for differences in results, tests...

Within the framework of the CLASH-white spot tests, wave overtopping tests on a smooth sloping structure have been performed at UGent. 3 different geometries have been tested during these tests 1) simple smooth dike 2) simple smooth dike with a small vertical part (same crest level as geometry 1) 3) simple smooth dike with a small vertical part...

This report provides a methodological background that will be used in the assessment of hazards of overtopping. Those assessment methods that attach a monetary value to the effects on resources are focussed upon. The relationships between the characteristics of overtopping and the use of specific valuation techniques is further explored....

The report summaries the results obtained with a berm breakwater attacked by oblique waves. In the tests special attention is given to the influence of the rock shape on the longshore transport. Moreover, the reshaping berm profile and amount of wave overtopping is examined. The tests were performed in a tree-dimensional model in Jan.-Feb. 96'...

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...

Prediction of wave overtopping discharges for seawalls / breakwaters have improved significantly over the last 25 years, but processes associated with overtopping hazards to people on or close behind seawalls are not yet well understood. Despite research advances in recent years, there remain important gaps in knowledge and disagreements over...

The manual has been intended to assist engineers who are already aware of the general principles and methods of coastal engineering. The manual uses methods and data from research studies around Europe and overseas so readers are expected to be familiar with wave and response parameters and the use of empirical equations for prediction. Users...

CLASH is concentrating on investigations of wave overtopping for different structures in prototype and in laboratory. The model investigations have focussed on wave overtopping and the comparison of overtopping results from small-scale model tests and prototype measurements. Possible differences in the results from small-scale tests and...

Within the framework of the European project CLASH phenomena related to wave overtopping are studied. In this report a method to predict wave overtopping at a wide range of coastal structure types is given. The method is based on Neural Network modelling of the mean wave overtopping discharge. The method can be applied for coastal structures...
